Winged Aviation


          Aviation, “the operation of heavier-than- air aircraft,” specifically winged aviation is one of the greatest inventions of the last century (“Aviation,” def. 1, Merriam-Webster). The Wright Flyer designed and built by Wilbur and Orville Wright that first flew on December 17, 1903 ushered in countless opportunities for future generations that were not even imaginable for their time. This great invention must pay tribute to earlier inventors--such as those whom developed the combustion engine, which was a vital piece for powered flight in the early 1900’s. The ultimate goal of this blog is to be informative of some of the biggest and maybe a few, small, upcoming inventions or technologies in development of winged aviation. Nothing about winged aviation is off limits to be blogged about­--from future planes that can pierce into space, to latest kind of toilet you will be using the next time you are on a commercial flight. If I can find information on it I will deliver it.
