Aviation Firsts

First successful heavier-than-air machine flight - 1903.
First multi-engined aircraft - 1913.
First successful helicopter flight - 1937.
First nonstop transcontinental flight - 1923.
The world's longest nonstop commercial flight. London to Hong Kong - 22 hrs, 43 min.
Etc,

We’re flying to Biloxi tomorrow for a few days of gambling away some of our hard earned money.
