Honor to Langley and Manley, Pioneers of Flight
The piece recalls the early struggle for mechanical flight and the ridicule faced by Samuel P. Langley and Charles M. Manly. Langley died before success, while Manly lived to see wide air travel. The Wright brothers gained fame, but Langley and Manly’s principles proved prescient as later aircraft used their ideas. Honor comes late, yet their trailblazing work merits recognition.
