In the first of four flights made on that day, the Flyer, piloted by Orville, was airborne for 12 seconds and covered a distance of 120 feet. In the fourth and final flight, piloted by Wilbur, it was airborne for 59 seconds and covered 852 feet.  Mahogany wood. Scale: 1/24, Wingspan 20 inches, length 10 inches.
