In the 21st Century, flying on commercial aircraft has become instrumental to our modern way of life, but in the late 1800’s, the idea of humankind leaving the safety of the ground beneath our feet was no more than a dream. The history of flight is an amazing journey of human ingenuity and determination, spanning from the Wright brothers' groundbreaking achievements in 1903 to the beginnings of the Space Race in the 1950s. Only 66 years passed between the world’s
first flight and the first step on the moon. Imagine where we could be 66 years from now!
Dream of Flight is not only a nod to the achievements of air and space craft developers,
but also represents humanity’s fascination with “reaching for the stars” and beyond.String Orchestra
