No more so than any others claiming first. Their genius lay within control. They devised means of controlling yaw, pitch, and roll long before they added power. When the went to Europe in 1908, they were so far ahead of Voison, Farman, etc, that it was next to impossible to refute their claims.
In addition to the control brilliance, their propeller design was extremely efficient, especially since they made it with hand tools and hand math. I believe their engine was also the most power per weight of any internal combustion engine at the time. It's pretty amazing what they did.

Welp, that song is now warped. Forever. Hehehehe.
SWMBO sang "Fire" in Elmer Fudd's voice the other day and it stuck in my head.

Now imagine Elmer Fudd singing "Running with the Devil".

The reality of who that dog should be comforting is wildly more disturbing and certainly not fit to show here!
Will try later, my Edit button is misfiring,
Please make arrangements with a Mod to appease your desires until my button returns.
No ruffling was intended.
In reply to 914Driver :
No, not ruffled here. I think your post is OK.
If you posted the real issue, THAT would be inappropriate!

That's an old bit, I forget who did that - one of the comedians from the '80s.
I lack the skills to do a real mashup, but I've been known to sing the words to Froggy Went A' Courtin' to the tune of this, in a parody Bruce Juice voice:

The Edit function is disabled approximately 2 hours after a given post is made.
In reply to Duke :
I thought it was disabled the moment someone else replied or voted on it.
I still think we could grant Edit capability to users once they reach a certain post count, I think PMs work the same way...
