"Gustave Whitehead: First in Flight" presents new, compelling evidence to credit Gustave Whitehead, aka Gustav Weißkopf, as "first in powered flight" and inventor of the airplane. This book reveals the fascinating truth about Whitehead's successful powered flights in Connecticut, more than two years before the Wrights flew at Kitty Hawk. Learn the startling reasons why the Wright brothers aren't "first in flight", as you enter the hidden history of early aviation. Available both in print and Kindle version.
