books that the Brothers read on flying the one that impressed them most was Progress in flying by octave published in this was a collection of a series first published in the Railroad and engineering it was a history of All the earlier attempts to Fly and an explanation of Chanute theories of which he hoped would serve As a guide for other who was born in Paris in had come to the United states in and settled near where he designed Wilbur wrote to Chanute in May of telling him that he himself believed that Man could and that from his observation of the flight of Buzzards he had concluded that what was needed was skill rather than a within two weeks Chanute wrote a most encouraging he sent Sev eral folders on flying As Well As a report on his own gliding and suggested other he said that he preferred preliminary learning on a Sandhill and trying ambitious feats Over for Winter flying he Sug san and Pine is but added that since both locations were deficient in per haps even better locations might be found on the Atlantic coasts of South Carolina or by August the Wrights were ready to begin construction of the when Wilbur wrote Chanute about a source of Chanute answered that he should use which could be purchased in and enclosed a formula for As he had found that spa varnish shrank the cloth Wing after studying the map for a favourable spot on the at Antic coast for their they wrote to Joseph chief of the Kitty weather for information about that Dosher replied on 16 that Kitty on the outer Banks of North was near the top of a 175 mile stretch of coastal Sand dunes from the Border of Virginia to Cape he said the Beach was about one mile wide and Clear of Trees or High with a Northeast and a North wind in september and two Days later he received a letter from William to whom Dosher had shown Wilburs Tate described a stretch of Sand one mile by five with an 80foot Hill in the Centre and no Bushes or Trees to break the wind when they received tales the Brothers decided that Kitty Hawk would be the they made As Many parts for the glider As possible in bending the Ash cutting and sewing the cloth covering for the Cost of the materials was about Early in september Wilbur began to pack the a assembled glider in a trunk along with his clothes and tools for the Orville was to stay behind to mind the shop until Wilbur had the Camp Wilbur left Dayton on after a very rough which included sailing through a he arrived on he inquired for William who As he the postmaster at Kitty county commissioner of Currituck county and also in the fishing Tate welcomed him to his almost immediately Wilbur began to assemble the it is evident from his letters that he already was certain that As soon As he Learned to control the plane the problem of adding a motor and flying would be quickly a failure of motor will Hen mean simply a slow descent and Safe land ing instead of a disastrous in my experiments i do not expect to Rise Many feet from the and in Case i am upset there is nothing but soft Sand to strike i do not intend to take dangerous both be cause i have no wish to get Hurt and because a fall would Stop my expert which i would not like at the Man who wishes to keep at the problem Long enough to really learn anything positively must not take dangerous work on assembling the glider went More slowly than he because he had not been Able to buy 18foot lumber and had to use 16foot this meant that the glider wings had to be made Shorter than they had and using tates sewing Wilbur had to take out two feet of the sateen Wing when Orville arrived on the Brothers roomed and boarded with the tates until they could set up their Camp on the winds at Kitty Hawk blew stronger than the Brothers and they were Unble to attempt a flight in the instead they flew it like a loading it with chains to give it work to do and running a number of strings to the ground with which to work the it be have fairly Orville wrote to his sister on 14 in the afternoon we took the machine to the Hill just South of our formerly known As Lookout but now As the Hill of the i have just stopped a minute to eat a spoonful of condensed no one Down Here has any regular milk the Only things that thrive and grow fat Are the mosquitoes and Wood this condensed milk comes in a can it is intended to be dissolved in but As we can not get it Down that we just eat it out of the can with a spoon after erecting a Derrick from which to swing our rope with which we Fly the we sent it up about 20 at which height we attempt to keep it by the manipulation of the strings to the the greatest difficulty is in keeping it it naturally wants to go higher and when it begins to get too High we give it a pretty Strong pull on the ducking to which it responds by making a a terrific Dart for the if nothing is broken we Start it up this is All practice in the control of the when it comes Down we just Lay it Flat on the ground and the pressure of the wind on the upper surface holds it Down so tightly that you can hardly raise it after an hour or so of practice in we Laid it Down on the ground to change some of the adjustments of the when with out a sixteenth of a seconds the wind caught under one and quicker than it landed 20 feet we had had a number of inter Esting experiences with it per forming some feats which would Al most seem an we dragged the pieces Back to Camp and began to consider getting the next morning we had cheered up some and began to think there was some Hope of repairing the next three Days were spent in hold ing the tent and Hunting mostly the on the Brothers started for leaving the glider be Hind partially buried in the after their return to Wilbur exchanged with octave Chanute a number of letters on their findings at Kitty Chanute asked permission to allude to the Brothers experiments in an article he was preparing for Cashiers Wilbur gave Chanute permission to refer to some of the observations they had but he also stated while it was not their intention to make a close secret of their at the same inasmuch As they had not yet had the Opportunity to test the full possibilities of their they wished to be the first
