Becoming International Celebrities

We built a plane back in 1905 that could fly for thirty-nine minutes. After the success of the Flyer, we dedicated ourselves to building more practical airplanes. That's how the other plane we built was made so we could sell it. In 1908 we signed contracts to build airplanes for the U.S. military and French investors. In a matter of months, the whole world learned of our invention and we were international celebrities.
