ENGLISH

Numerous awesome innovations are at first welcomed with disrespect and doubt. The
development of the plane was no special case. Although numerous individuals who airborne the
flight on December 17, 1903, were energized and inspired, others laughed about it. The idea of
flying an aircraft was repulsive to some individuals. However, individuals such as Wilbur and

Later, they designed a newspaper folding machine, manufactured a printing press, and worked

enthusiasm for flight developed into an impulse.
