Keith, the Wright Bros have always been special heroes of mine. The two
volumes of their own papers are still in print today, maybe under $100
still for the set. Their papers tell exactly what happened, in minute
detail.
I felt sort of sorry for the fellas who built the present replica the
other day, bad weather and out in front of 35K people it wouldn't work.
Nonetheless the whole celebration is very fitting and I know many
thousands of young people will be inspired to learn the Wright story,
and will go on and try to be something special like them. Happy
holidays, Ardun Bill
