Who invented the plane? For many people in the world, it was not the Wright brothers

The history of aviation has followed a fascinating trajectory. Leonardo da Vinci first envisaged manned flight way back in the 15th century.

Today there are airliners that can carry hundreds of passengers non-stop half way round the world. And space tourism will one day be a reality. Browse the following gallery and take off for a brief flight through the history of aviation, and meet some of the great pioneers of air travel along the way.
