Aviation History
Aviation history is a fascinating journey that began with the first hot-air balloon flight by the
Montgolfier brothers in 1783. The 20th century saw significant advancements, starting with
the Wright Brothers’ first powered flight in 1903. The design and technology of aircraft have
advanced quickly thanks to this extraordinary event. During World War I and II, the need for
superior air power led to innovations like jet engines and radar systems. Post-war, the
appearance of commercial aviation transformed global travel and trade. The supersonic
Concorde, introduced in 1976, symbolized the top of passenger air travel. The late 20th and
early 21st centuries have seen the rise of drones and the exploration of space travel. Today,
with a focus on sustainability, the aviation industry is innovating towards more fuel-efficient
and environmentally friendly aircraft.
