 Fixed-wing aircraft   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Sir George Cayley, the inventor of the science of aerodynamics, was building and flying models of fixed wing aircraft as early as 1803, and he built a successful passenger-carrying glider in 1853, but it is known the first practical self-powered airplanes were designed and constructed by The Wright Brothersthe Wright brothers.
(Indeed, the German Karl Jatho had already constructed such 4 months earlier and made his first flight August 28, 1903 in Hanover.) Their first successful test flights were in December 17, 1903 and by 1904 the Wright FlyerFlyer III was capable of fully-controllable stable flight for substantial periods.
Strictly, its wings were not completely fixed, as it depended for stability on a flexing mechanism named wing warping.
