leonardo da vinci, creating a blue print for an helicopter back in 1487 should’ve been mentioned

Just mindblowing how the invention of planes progressed year by year this vid actually taught me the reasoning behind the saying 'Slow but steady wins the race'.Thank you for this amazing vid.i was just chilling on the backyard when i saw aeroplanes flying and just fascinated by its ability to stay on air and how it all began.Thank you again for helping me grow my knowledge kind sir❤😊

Too bad this guy skipped over gliders which led to the Wright flyer. Example: Sir George Cayley (1773-1857) built the world's first hand-launched glider in 1804. It was five feet long and was the first example of the configuration of a modern aircraft, with separate systems for lift and control. Cayley deserves to be remembered as the first aeronautical engineer. Also missing is rocketry which led to the space shuttle and moon landings.

Great video ✈️ I’ll be watching it again

Yet again BIRDS get none of the credit, except in a mythological context :P

[wesleybanks]

Great videos. How about History of Rock, History of Certain art form, and the history of various architecture styles. I think that would be interesting.

24:35 i could not find any information on this claim
Edit, that's an error, you meant the X-43, the aircraft pictured is the X-45 which is an UAV which's top speed is around 200 knots.

I will talk about something, Within the expansive and intricately interwoven fabric of the aviation domain, where the amalgamation of diverse disciplines like aerodynamics, aeronautics, air traffic management, avionics, and meteorology converges, individuals must cultivate an exhaustive and profound understanding to adeptly navigate the perpetual complexities, ensuring the harmonious and secure orchestration of aircraft operations amid the ever-shifting dynamics of the vast and celestial expanses overhead, also Navigating the intricate tapestry of aviation, a multifaceted realm intertwining disciplines such as aerodynamics, aeronautics, air traffic management, avionics, and meteorology, demands an expansive and nuanced comprehension, as individuals within this dynamic field collaboratively work to ensure the safe, efficient, and seamless operation of aircraft within the ever-evolving and vast expanse of the boundless skies.

You are missing a whole big part of the history. Glenn Curtiss!!! He even got american pilot license #1, won the first airmeet in france. Is regarded as the father of naval aviation. Trained american pilots in san diego. Created the most built plane during the first world war (JN4) which was used to train pilots in the UK and later used for the us mail. Developed the idea of the air carrier (and tested it with the american military) and created the plane that flew for the first time across the atlantic (NC4) among many, many, many other accomplishments.

[neyoliveira]

What about the 14 Bis, an airplane with a combustion engine made by the Brazilian Santos Dumont, which flew before the Wright brothers' model? When the Wright brothers made their first flight using a catapult, Santos Dumont had already flown using the engine. That is why Santos Dumont is considered the father of aviation by Brazilians. And he deserves it.
