Milton Wright
Milton Wright was an American bishop in the United Brethren in Christ Church and the father of aviation pioneers Orville and Wilbur Wright. He played a significant role in nurturing his sons' interests in mechanics and flight, encouraging their curiosity and creativity from a young age. His concern for their safety led him to impose a promise that they would not fly together in an aircraft, a pact they honored until a rare occasion in 1910. On that day, Milton's excitement was palpable as he experienced flight for the first time at the age of 82, witnessing the culmination of his sons' groundbreaking work in aviation. Milton Wright's legacy is intertwined with the achievements of his sons, who are honored annually on Wright Brothers Day in the United States.
Born on Jul 17, 1828 (196 years old)
