Into the Wild Blue Yonder: The Making of the Airplane

from History Loves Company · host Chester Sakamoto

While the boat may be the oldest form of man-made transportation to be made into a reality, it's quite possible that humans have been thinking about flight even longer, noting birds, flying insects, and other species that could take to the skies with ease. As such, humans have been experimenting with flight since civilization began and it was the fruit of their labors and research that contributed to the vehicle we now know as the airplane. Join me as we take to the skies for an epic look at the history behind flight and how it led to the creation of the mode of transportation we now take for granted.
