    The document is a lecture on the history of airplanes. It discusses early pioneers like Sir George Cayley who experimented with gliders and flapping wings in the late 18th century. It then covers the Wright brothers, who in 1903 were the first to achieve powered, controlled and sustained heavier-than-air flight. The lecture continues tracing developments in airplane anatomy and aerodynamic principles over subsequent decades.
