Replica of the 1903 Wright Flyer on Exhibit in Henry Ford Museum, September 2007

This replica of the 1903 Wright Flyer was built in 2003 to celebrate the centennial of the Wright brothers' first flight at Kill Devil Hills, North Carolina. The replica Flyer became the heart of the Heroes of the Sky exhibit in Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation, sitting in the central hub that connected each of the exhibit's sections.
