Our Scenario
WrighSim is a realistic Flight Simulator
which provides participants with an opportunity to
fly a Flight Simulation of the 1903 Wright Flyer,
the world’s first powered, and controlled airplane.
This immersive and interactive flight simulation mimic’s
the aerodynamics of the actual 1903 flight, and includes
realistic weather, scenery, and sound effects. WrightSim
was developed in support of the 100th anniversary
of flight celebration.
Special Thanks
WrightSim was made possible through
generous support from the NASA
Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate (ARMD).
NASA
Glenn Research Center (GRC) provided WrightSim
project management, WrightSim design, and technical
expertise in the areas of the Wright Brothers and
Wright Flyer history. Glenn Research Center’s
Advanced Graphics
and Visualization (G-Vis) Lab developed the WrightSim
Software.
