About this program
Step back in history during this short walk to the actual site of the Wrights’ first powered flights! Discover why the Wrights chose Kitty Hawk for their flight experiments and what life was like in the Outer Banks; learn about the events that led to the first powered flight on that cold December day, and the lasting impact their first flight continues to have on the world today.
Program is weather-dependent and may be moved to accomodate wind/rain. Check in at the Visitor Center desk for the most updated information.
