The Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park is where the Wright brothers famously invented and tested the first practical airplane, and it features the Wright Cycle Company Shop, where they first began working on the invention that would revolutionize the world. If you still haven't gotten your fill of aviation history, head on over to the National Aviation Hall of Fame or The National Museum of the U.S. Air Force, which feature extensive exhibits and hundreds of aircraft, many of which are one-of-a-kind.
