RE: DOCUMENTARY: The Incredible Wright Brothers

in #history7 years ago

While they didn't actually develop aircraft and flights carrying people as the Wright Brothers did, they did create one of the most aerodynamic devices that would lift a piece of wood into the air, fly outwards and retun to the thrower.
Now that is pretty impressive!!

Wow. Sounds really incredible, to say the least. I will appreciate if you could help me with a link to this amazing fact.

Here's some useful information @gandhibaba - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boomerang

Boomerang
A boomerang is a thrown tool, typically constructed as a flat airfoil, that is designed to spin about an axis perpendicular to the direction of its flight. A returning boomerang is designed to return to the thrower. It is well known as a weapon used by Indigenous Australians for hunting.
Boomerangs have been historically used for hunting, as well as a sport, and entertainment.

Thank you @cause-no-harm for these lessons. I find them really educative. You are being followed. Regards
