The Crazy Cool World of Flight- SR-71, Stealth Bomber, Wright Bros, Helicopters, Flying Cars & More

Good afternoon and welcome to today's flight video. Today we'll be flying over the subjects of the crazy cool, and expensive, engineering of the B-2 Stealth Bomber. How the SR-71 Blackbird got made and how they made it so insanely fast. How the Wright Brothers won the race to the air. Next up an Incredibly deep dive into the fascinating invention of the helicopter. Can you really legally land a helicopter in a fast food parking lot? Moving on from there the strange world and incredible engineering of the wingless lifting body aircraft. The long and twisting road to flying cars. The largely forgotten airship disaster that helped end the cruise ships of the sky. And, finally, was Alberto Santos-Dumont the real inventor of the airplane?
