The Wright brothers did not achieve their first flight at Kitty Hawk, NC. It took place in Kill Devil Hills, a town to the south of Kitty Hawk. The reason the flight was attributed to have taken place in Kitty Hawk is because Kill Devil Hills didn't have a telegram office at that time, and the closest one was situated in Kitty Hawk; because of this, Kitty Hawk is most often attributed to being the birthplace of flight, when it was actually Kill Devil Hills where man achieved flight for the first time.
