Building and flying the 1899 Wright KiteGet yourself hands on with aviation history. We offer two sets of FREE plans, one for the historic kite and another for an easy-to-build "Not Quite Wright" kite.
Wright Airplane Model KitsSources for kits that you can buy to build a Wright Flyer and other Wright aircraft. Includes Dare's new laser-cut kits for radio-controlled and rubber band-powered 1903 Flyers!
The Real McCoyUp close and personal with the world's first practical aircraft, the 1905 Wright Flyer 3. Not a replica, this is one of aviation's most precious artifacts.
