Kite research paragraph
Kites have been around for thousands of years and they are a part of many
different cultures around the world. The Wright brothers. In 1899 were
developing their theories for the control of an aircraft by using wing warping, they built a small maneuverable
kite to confirm their ideas. Between 1900 and 1903 they would fly their gliders as unmanned kites at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. These experiments led directly to their successful 1903 aircraft.
A kite is an unpowered, heavier-than-air flying device held to the earth by a
line. The kite flies because wind resistance causes the air pressure under the
kite to be greater than the air pressure above the kite, making the kite rise.
The word kite is derived from the name of a type of bird belonging to the hawk
family which is know for its soaring flight. A kite consists of three basic parts: the body, the line, and the bridle that
attaches the line to the body. To control movement of the
kite, the string must be attached to the body of the kite in at least two
places.http://www.encyclopedia.com/topic/kite.aspx
