1903 First Flight

Welcome to the Discovery of Flight Foundation Website!

The Discovery of Flight Foundation is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) charitable organization which seeks to rediscover the Wright Brothers experimentation, discovery, and methodology, provide for the reconstruction of original Wright Brothers aircraft, and create a living classroom for people of all ages. The foundation has contracted with the Wright Experience to achieve this ambitious plan.
