Wright Flyer 1680 x 1050 Widescreen Wallpaper

Sunday, April 24, 2011

In December 1903, the Wright brothers did something that would change the world. This simple aircraft was the first powered flight airplane.

Since I love aircraft and flying so much, I feel a kinship with these guys. Even on my pilot's license there is a picture of them both.

So, here is the Wright Flyer widescreen wallpaper. I touched up the photo since it had some original defects and applied some post-processing to correct exposure and contrast.

Looking at this scene, you wonder if they had any idea what their success would lead to? I wonder what they would think if they saw an Airbus A380 or an F/A-22.
