In 1908, Wilbur Wright is quoted as saying:
I confess that in 1901 I said to my brother Orville that man would not fly for fifty years…Ever since, I have distrusted myself and avoided all predictions.
The brothers are credited with making the first controlled, powered, heavier-than-air flight on December 17, 1903.
