Aero-Linx!
Scouring the information super airways can sometimes be a tough,
if educational, task for the Aero-News staff... but it also allows
us to check out some truly neat and exciting sites, so it's not
that bad a gig. On any given day, we may check dozens (and often
hundreds) of different sources for story ideas, and facts
confirmation. And, as is the nature of our business, much of this
is done on the Internet.
The ANN gang decided we probably shouldn't keep some of the neat
sites, info resources, and organizations we've discovered to
ourselves... so we decided to bring you Aero-Linx. These are the
sites that WE check out -- when we need added perspective, a new
spin on a day's topic... or just want to escape into
cyber-aero-space for awhile.
Look for some of our favorite sites, coming each day to ANN via
Aero-Linx.
Suggestions for future Aero-Linx segments are always
welcome, as well.
Aero-Linx: Wright Brothers
National Memorial
Wright Brothers National Memorial is one of over 390 parks in
the National Park System. The National Park Service cares for these
special places saved by the American people so that all may
experience our heritage. Wind, sand, and a dream of flight brought
Wilbur and Orville Wright to Kitty Hawk, North Carolina where,
after four years of experimentation, they achieved the first
successful airplane flights in 1903. With courage and perseverance,
these self-taught engineers relied on teamwork and application of
the scientific process. What they achieved changed our world
forever.
