Welcome to Wright “B” Flyer!
Based in Dayton, Ohio, USA – the birthplace of aviation – Wright “B” Flyer Inc. flies and displays lookalikes of the Wright brothers’ first production airplane, the Wright Model B Flyer.
Wright “B” Flyer No. 001 – the “Brown Bird” – has been a flying ambassador of Dayton’s aviation heritage for more than 25 years. It has appeared at public and private events from California to Berlin.
In cooperation with the National Park Service and the U.S. Air Force, we display the non-flying Valentine Wright Model B – the “Valentine Flyer” or “Yellow Bird” – on Historic Huffman Prairie, where the Wright brothers tested the original airplane and later trained more than 100 pioneer aviators.
What’s it like to fly on the Wright “B”? Try out the flight simulator in our Hangar-Museum. Better yet, become an honorary aviator member and get a free orientation flight on the “B”!
Our hangar-museum is located on Dayton-Wright Brothers Airport (MGY) in southern Montgomery County. We have regular public hours and admission is free.
