VIDEO 629.133 W947 History's mysteries journeys back to the early days of the century to chronicle the attempts of the overlooked aviators and dreamers who were the Wrights' contemporaries. In particular, we'll examine the controversy surrounding the claims of Gustave Whitehead. Many witnesses claimed that they saw his flying machine aloft over Bridgeport, Connecticut on August 14, 1901. Boston and New York newspapers recorded the event, but it has never received official recognition. Then, on January 17, 1902, still nearly two years before Kitty Hawk, Whitehead was airborne again, piloting a kerosene powered monoplane on two flights over Long Island Sound.
vc09236 Takes a look at Huffman Prairie where the Wright brothers practiced and perfected the concepts involved in powered flight from 1904 to 1905, and where they conducted a pilot training school and exhibition company from 1910 to 1915.
