the orville and wilbur wright are mentioned the beginning of aviation is often the thought that follows but history is changing and it may be time to add another name to that conversation
meet charles frederick page a black man born into slavery that taught himself how to read and write but more impressively according to local historian michael when patented the first airship
it's a story that it truly is unbelievable
unbelievable that it's being ignored until two thousand and twenty three when has uncovered local newspaper articles and reports from nineteen for recording the outstanding feat of flight by a black man and his airship his research even further lead him to find charles f pages patent predates that of the wright brothers
the innovative accomplishments of page are not only confirmed by historical record but i've lived on through family lore the city of pineville unveiled a historical landmark in honor of frederick page on the land that he and his family have owned since he purchased it over one hundred years ago
