EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the historic moment of the first flight of the Aerial Experiment Association (AEA) Red Wing, Aerodrome No. 1, on a frozen lake in 1908. The AEA, formed by visionaries including Dr. Alexander Graham Bell, J.A.D. McCurdy, Lt. Thomas Selfridge, F.W. Casey Baldwin, and Glenn Curtiss, was a time-limited association established for the purpose of constructing a practical, powered aircraft with its own motive power, capable of carrying a man. The Red Wing, the first in a series of experimental aircraft designed and built by the AEA team, is seen here on skids just before its maiden voyage. Notable figures in the aviation world, Bell, McCurdy, and Curtiss, worked tirelessly to make this groundbreaking achievement a reality. The AEA was formally organized on October 1, 1907, and the Red Wing's successful flight marked a significant milestone in the development of powered flight. This image offers a glimpse into the early days of aviation history, showcasing the determination and innovation of the pioneers who dared to take to the skies.
