Take a step back in time to the place where the Wright Brothers mastered the art of controlled flight—Huffman Prairie. After their historic success at Kitty Hawk, the brothers returned to Dayton to tackle the next big challenge: how to turn, bank, and land their flying machine. Join me as we explore the very field where they honed these skills in 1904 and 1905, all while shooing cattle out of their way! Discover the story behind this unassuming patch of land and its role in aviation history, right next to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. We’ll also visit the memorial and visitor center that honor their achievements. This is a must-see for any aviation enthusiast! ‪@Zach_OnTheMap‬
