The Wrights' aircraft from 1900-1905 all had the pilot operating the machine while lying on the lower wing. The controls which evolved, while practical, are far different from today's standard aircraft controls.
All that remains of an aircraft called F-19 is the controls and a few other parts. These unique artifacts yielded invaluable information for the new set of controls, as well as a fascinating glimpse into early aviation.
The Builder: a yacht designer under contract with the Wrights.
The Pilots: Charlie Hamilton and Harry Atwood, one a daredevil and one an entrepreneur.
