Well that ended fast.
14 years later...
You know OrvilleI am already 25 years old and I have barely any money..None of our business ideas have worked and I don't know what we are going to do next..
Well, I've been having this idea for a long time.. what if we open up a bicycle shop? It seems like there isn't very many good bicycle shops here so we can probably open one up!
The Wright Cycle Company
Eventually, the Wright brother's bike shop became one of the most popular bike shops in town!
Nah, let's waste it all on experimenting with flight.
Wow! We finally have some money! Let's spend it on something useful like a house or food!
7 years later...1899
So far, our experiments are going great, but we need more information about what is already known.
No need to worry about that, I was just about to write this letter to the Smithsonian institutionand ask them for all of the information that they know
This was the last piece of information we needed. Now we can start designing the flying machine.
Look at all the books that they sent us!
Still working...
Yep, still working..
Ladies and gentleman, what you see here is the start of the aviation era!
