Man, oh man! People in my town are gonna be really ticked off when word of this fraud gets out.

It's gonna get expensive too.....changing the name of the Air Force base, a local university, several industrial parks, a historic district, etc., all because they were named after FRAUDS! :o

Actually that failure was a great copy of the first flight attempt, be it on 14 December:

But most likely Wilbur frauded that coin.

Let's see... a lightweight wood (read: porous) and muslin aircraft. On a wet, rainy day.

What could POSSIBLY have gone wrong?

No, don't tell me. I'll get it in a minute...
