2. The Wright brothers pioneered the flight control system to make the aircraft fly under control, thus laying the foundation for the practical application of the aircraft. This technology still applies to all aircraft. The great inventions of the Wright brothers changed the transportation, economy, production and daily life of human beings, and also changed the military history.

Introduction of aircraft related knowledge;

1. An airplane refers to an aircraft that is heavier than air and flies in the atmosphere. The power plant equipped with one or more engines generates forward thrust or pull, and the fixed wings of the fuselage generate lift.

2. The airplane is one of the most important inventions in the early 20th century, and it is generally believed that it was invented by the Wright brothers in America. The invention of aircraft has profoundly changed and influenced people's lives, and has increasingly become an indispensable means of transportation for modern civilization.

Classification of aircraft:

Aircraft can be divided into military aircraft and civil aircraft according to their uses. In addition to passenger planes and transport planes, civil aircraft also include agricultural machines, forest protection machines, aerial survey machines, medical rescue machines, sightseeing machines, business jets, sports machines, experimental research machines, meteorological machines, stunt machines and law enforcement machines.
