If you want, you can Google the plans for a flying machine drawn up by Leonardo da Vinci back in the early 1500s. He was fascinated by the subject and had drawn hundreds and hundreds of plans and written a ton on the subject. There's no evidence he ever built his machine, and that's probably for the best as the knowledge we have today tells us that there's no way it would have worked. But the idea was there! And it never went away. And then on Dec. 17, 1903, the Wright brothers tested their very first plane at Kitty Hawk and made four very brief but overall successful flights. And in just over 100 years look how far we've come! The Concorde could cross the ocean at speeds topping 1,300 miles per hour. The Airbus A380 plane had a wingspan of 262 feet and could carry 500 passengers. That's an incredible evolution! And learning everything needed to fly these things is not easy.
If you have a bit of a pilot's heart, that love of freedom and taking to the air in defiance of gravity, then prove to us you know your stuff. Hop in the pilot's seat and take the quiz!
