Abstract

The Wright brothers' activities in inventing the airplane are set forth. They include library research, conscious imagining of a solution to flight's demands, kite experiments, communication with experts, glider experiments, experiments with a wind tunnel, and propeller design. Then the aerodynamics of insect flight is considered, demonstrating their superb sophistication. It is concluded that since human flight was in fact the result of such a high degree of intelligent planning, certainly the Creator's design is even more directly obvious in the origin of insect flight.
