First Flight. Orville Wright became the first human to harness the power of winged flight way back in 1903 - yet nature had beaten him to it by a mere million years. This thought-provoking film re-creates the most dramatic moments in the last 100 years of aviation and, by using the latest film and computer technology, illustrates how nature has come up with spectacular solutions to the same endeavour.
