This video is essentially my response to various others on youtube who claim that someone other than the Wright Brothers invented the airplane.
I specifically respond to Lindybeige, History Guy, and Real Engineering. All are good channels, and I especially enjoy Lindybeige and History Guy, but all three are wrong on this issue.

The comment section for this video is so vast that's it's tough to keep up with, so I can no longer respond to each. In order to simplify, if your comment indicates that you didn't even bother to watch the video before commenting, I'll just delete it.

As stated in the video, the sources I used are the Wright's journals and letters to their family members, mostly their sister Katherine. These can be found at no charge at the Library of Congress. https://www.loc.gov/collections/wilbu...

An easier alternative is to get a copy of "Kill Devil Hill" by Harry Combs. His book is basically a collection of the relevant journal entries and letters organized with commentary into a logical order. The Harry Combs book is outstanding.
