[PAR] [TLE] Wright brothers [SEP] The Wright brothers, Orville (August 19, 1871 – January 30, 1948) and Wilbur (April 16, 1867 – May 30, 1912), were two American brothers, inventors, and aviation pioneers who are generally credited with inventing, building, and flying the world's first successful airplane.  They made the first controlled, sustained flight of a powered, heavier-than-air aircraft on December 17, 1903, four miles south of Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.  In 1904–05 the brothers developed their flying machine into the first practical fixed-wing aircraft.  Although not the first to build and fly experimental aircraft, the Wright brothers were the first to invent aircraft controls that made fixed-wing powered flight possible. [PAR] [TLE] Octave Chanute [SEP] Octave Chanute (February 18, 1832, Paris – November 23, 1910, Chicago, Illinois) was an American civil engineer and aviation pioneer, born in France.  He provided many budding enthusiasts, including the Wright brothers, with help and advice, and helped to publicize their flying experiments.  At his death he was hailed as the father of aviation and the heavier-than-air flying machine.
