I'm on the way back to NY for a few weeks, and made a little detour to visit the Wright Brothers Memorial in Kill Devil Hills, NC, a place I've wanted to visit for a long time.
1 - Memorial tower on the sand dune where the Wrights performed glider flights to prepare for their powered flight.
2 - Wilbur Wright
3 - Stone marks the takeoff spot for the Wrights' first flight, with stone monuments marking each flight's length.
4 - 12 Seconds that changed the world.
5 - First Flight a life-size bronze sculpture, dedicated in December 2003 to mark the centennial of the Wrights first flight.
6 - The sculpture recreates the famous photograph of the first flight taken by John Daniels. Daniels had never seen a camera before he was asked by the Wrights to photograph their flight, thus becoming the first aviation photographer.
7 - Where it all began.
8 - The obligatory night shot...
