The Wright brothers - The 1902 Try
Time: 1902
Place: Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, U.S.
Details: By 1902 they realized that wing-warping created "differential drag" at the wingtips. Greater lift at one end of the wing also increased drag, which slowed that end of the wing, making the glider swivel—or "yaw"—so the nose pointed away from the turn. That was how the tailless 1901 glider behaved.
