    Wright Brothers Hill is where aviation history took flight! It's the very spot where Wilbur and Orville Wright conducted their pioneering experiments in 1904 and 1905. The hill sits right next to Huffman Prairie Flying Field. This was the field where the Wright brothers truly learned to fly after their initial experiments on the hill. Standing on Wright Brothers Hill, you can see this field where aviation history continued to unfold after their groundbreaking flights.
