Movie Description Kitty Hawk, North Carolina became the site of a key moment in history when, in 1903, Wilbur and Orville Wright managed to get their glider craft flying in the air for 12 whole seconds. While they are credited with having made the world's first working airplane, the Wright brothers--originally two bicycle mechanics from Ohio--did not always receive such unanimous support. Taking viewers back in time to the early 20th century, THE TECHNOLOGY OF KITTY HAWK examines the technological limits, challenges, and difficulties that the pioneering Wright team had to rise above in order to make their dreams of man's flight a reality.
