EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a historic moment as Orville Wright, one of the founding fathers of aviation, welcomes Major John F. Curry and Colonel Charles Lindbergh to Wright Field in Dayton, Ohio on June 22, 1927. Orville, the younger brother of Wilbur Wright, is best known for his pioneering work in aviation with his brother, having made the first powered and controlled airplane flight on December 17, 1903. Major Curry, a distinguished military aviator, and Colonel Lindbergh, the renowned American hero and the first solo transatlantic flyer, came to pay a personal call on Orville, recognizing his invaluable contributions to the field of aviation. The trio's meeting is a testament to the awe-inspiring impact of the Wright Brothers' achievements and the profound respect they commanded in the aviation community. The significance of this moment is further emphasized by the setting - Wright Field, the United States Army Air Corps' first aviation post, which was named in honor of the Wright Brothers. This photograph not only encapsulates the spirit of innovation and collaboration that characterized the early days of aviation but also serves as a reminder of the enduring legacy of Orville and Wilbur Wright.
