@onthisday.x: Today in History | December 17, 1903 12 seconds. 120 feet. One fragile machine. At Kitty Hawk, two brothers proved that humans could fly. No spectacle. No applause. Just belief, wind, and persistence. Every plane in the sky today traces back to this moment. Would you have believed it then? #TodayInHistory #WrightBrothers #OnThisDay #AviationHistory #HumanProgress

It wasn't so primitive. They completely understood the control laws. The poor power-to-weight ratio of engines was a major challenge, and they used a canard design, which has much lower power requirements than "conventional" light piston aircraft. Ailerons and flaps came later, so what?
