Wright family members Amanda Wright-Lane, Iris Lane and her father Stephen Wright placed a wreath at the Wright Brothers Memorial with Wright-Patterson Air Force Base 88th Air Base Wing Commander Col. Bradley M. McDonald. Within seconds, the roar of a perfectly timed flyover by a WWII era P-51D Mustang followed, marking the hour and minute of the first flight: 10:35 a.m.
"It's a snowy, cloudy backdrop for a beautiful flyover," said Amanda Wight-Lane, Great Grandniece of the Wright Brothers. The P-51D is part of the Tri-State Warbird Museum in Cincinnati.
