The Wright Brothers
The Wright brothers invented and flew the first airplane in December 17 1903. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airplane] -
Benoist XIV
The small plane was specifically designed in the hope of carrying passengers. [http://www.ba-bamail.com/content.aspx?emailid=17920] -
Jet Aircrafts were invented
Jet aircraft are propelled by jet engines, which are used because the aerodynamic limitations of propellers do not apply to jet propulsion. These engines are much more powerful than a reciprocating engine for a given size or weight and are comparatively quiet and work well at higher altitude. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airplane] -
Ramjet
A ramjet is a form of jet engine that contains no major moving parts and can be particularly useful in applications requiring a small and simple engine for high-speed use, such as with [missileshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airplane] -
German Rocket powered Aircraft
In World War II, the Germans deployed the Me 163 Komet rocket-powered aircraft. The first plane to break the sound barrier in level flight was a rocket plane. [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airplane] -
Messerschmitt Me 262
It became the world's first jet-powered fighter aircraft. -

Scramjet
A scramjet is a supersonic ramjet and aside from differences with dealing with internal supersonic airflow works like a conventional ramjet. This type of engine requires a very high initial speed in order to work. The NASA X-43, an experimental unmanned scramjet, set a world speed record in 2004 for a jet-powered aircraft with a speed of Mach 9.7, nearly 7,500 miles per hour.

Solar Impulse
Solar Impulse 2 has completed 15 of those stages and sits in Seville ready to complete the final stage of its journey back to Abu Dhabi, from where its journey began in March 2016. [http://www.ba-bamail.com/content.aspx?emailid=17920]
