Brothers I discovered this historical photograph in the Library of Congress collection. I think of it as the Wright Brothers’ first public relations photograph showcasing their machine. Wilbur and Orville stood next to the 1904 "Wright Flyer II" outside of the barn at Huffman Prairie. The brothers made 105 flights at Huffman Prairie during that year, totaling 49 minutes in the air.
