(Indians, don't forget that all the pre-independence inventions of India will be considered inventions of both India and Pakistan. Agree or not? :P)

But not even the wright brothers could not claim that i don`t think

Frenchman Clement Ader (1841-1925) flew a steam-powered bat-winged plane in Paris in 1890. It is accepted that the aircraft, EOLE, took off, reaching a height of 20 cm (8 inches), and flew uncontrolled for approximately 50 m (160 ft). This was 13 years before the Wright Brothers' famous flight. Ader is known for his prescient suggestions regarding ships used as airfields (the aircraft carrier).

German Gustave Whitehead, a German immigrant living in Connecticut in 1901, has been designated as "first in powered flight" by Jane's All the World Aircraft (March, 2013) - they are considered the "bible" of aviation history, worldwide. The Wright Brothers - Orville and Wilbur Wright, of Dayton, Ohio are now considered second with powered flight. Gustave Whitehead invented and flew the world's first airplane in 1901, at Fairfield, CT. His monoplane, called "No. 21" or "the Condor", was based on Count D'Esterno's and Otto Lilienthal's designs. Search on Gustave Whitehead Info for more information on this little-known pioneer inventor of the world's first successful airplane.
