THE AEROPLANE

One of the biggest drems in the human history was that people could fly. In the Ancient Greece there were a lot ofstories were people fly as "Icaro". Leonardo Da Vinci designed an "aeroplane" on the 15th century, but the first flight came in 1783 with François de Rozien. Humans started to invent better aeroplanes and in 1903 wright Brothers made the first aeroplane with enginein history. Finally this dreams has been true and people can fly where they want and this is a big step in history becauseit makes life easier. In my opinion I don´t like flying and I always feel dizzy. To sum up I would say that any dream you have can come true.
