how is that?

 

[ChefChip]

by international flight record laws, the pilot must take off and land int he craft to consider it a flight. The russians built their first capsules to eject the cosmonaught after rentry and have him parachute down seperatly. thus we were the to orbit the eiarth and put a man in space.

Now let's here another useless trivial fact, anybody else?

 

[ChefChip]

ok another one

helium is available only in and from the United states, hence the hindenburg

(although I dont think we american's can claim the "First in space" with the technicality that russians didnt LAND *LOL*

 

[ChefChip]

sure we can claim what ever we want we're american and we do what we want. anyway here's another one

th first powered flight in a heavier than air aircraft by the Wright borthers at Kittyhawk lasted 12 seconds and covered a distance of 120 feet or ten feet a second.
