The distance of the Wright Brothers' first flight was shorter than the wingspan of a Boeing 747 jet.

FACT

The first flight of Flyer I at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, in 1903 was 120 feet in length; the wingspan of a 747 is 196 feet.
It was a short flight, but for Orville, legroom was not a problem.
