Joe Who?


Montgolfier.



The world was full of folks who jumped off roofs, went up in balloons
and gliders, and crashed motorized airplanes into rivers, but that was
not powered flight. That was failure. The Wright Bros succeeded. To
them goes the palm, and the world's memory.


You didn't say co-fathers of powered flight, you said co-fathers of flight.
Balloon flight is still flight.
