Ohio is also the birthplace of aviation 

Commonly known as the Wright Brothers, Wilbur and Orville Wright brought humanity into a new era, the age of flight.

Wilbur was born in Millville, Indiana, in 1867, while Orville was born a true Ohio native in 1871 in Dayton, Ohio.

While they moved a lot when they were children, they returned to Dayton in 1884, where they began their experimentations with flight.

They developed the world’s first successful motor-operated airplane in Dayton, Ohio.

North Carolina claimed they were “first in flight” as the brothers completed their tests there, but Ohio will always be the birthplace of aviation.
