e known as the first men to fly an airplane. Can you tell us what their purposes were in the beginning?
M: I think in the beginning they were looking for a chance to be famous. I don't think they were sure about what they were able to achieve.

W: What did the people in the neighborhood think of the Wright brothers?
M: Most people were interested in the Wright brothers. But I think some of them were worried. You see, here are two men flying kites in the mid- dle of the day when they should be working.
