From ancient times onwards, flight has been a measure of scientific progress, a symbol of wealth and status, and a catalyst for interpersonal and international competition. It is a field that has been pioneered largely by the dedication of individuals rather than corporations or governments for the majority of its history. The history of aviation is incredibly broad and complicated, so much so that its entirety couldn’t be easily contained in any single written source.
