Thanks for bringing Dummont up. All the Wright Brothers built was a glider that could fall from a pillar.<p>Dummont created the first motorized airplane, which is a look more like a real airplane than an ultra-light that can&#x27;t launch itself.<p>And 100 years earlier there was an Italian that came up with a model airplane that would have flown if built to human scale.<p>I really don&#x27;t understand why people care so much about the Wright Brothers. I can&#x27;t see what they invented originally at all.<p>More information about Dummont vs Wright here: <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;web.archive.org&#x2F;web&#x2F;20030820050506&#x2F;http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.thefirsttofly.hpg.ig.com.br&#x2F;pioneer2.htm" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;web.archive.org&#x2F;web&#x2F;20030820050506&#x2F;http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.thefirs...</a>
