Wright B reenacts historic flight
A lookalike Wright “B” Flyer climbs over Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio during a Oct. 2, 2010 reenactment of the world’s first cargo flight. The original flight took place Nov. 7, 1910, and was made by Wright Company pilot Phil Parmelee from Huffman Prairie Flying Field (now part of Wright-Patterson Air Force Base) to Columbus. While the original cargo was 200 pounds of silk cloth, the Air Force Research Laboratory provided an advanced ceramic matrix composite fabric and conceptual models of micro-aerial vehicles to serve a cargo for the reenactment.
