Wright Flyer III, Aviation pioneer aircraft at Carillon Historical Park, Dayton, US.

The Wright Flyer III features a spruce construction airframe with dual propellers and a modified engine from the previous Flyer II model.

On October 5, 1905, Wilbur Wright flew the aircraft for 39 minutes covering 24.2 miles, setting a record for sustained controlled flight.

The aircraft resides in the John W. Berry Sr. Wright Brothers Aviation Center, which contains the largest collection of Wright artifacts worldwide.

Visitors can observe the restored Wright Flyer III at Carillon Historical Park, alongside a replicated Wright brothers' bicycle shop from West Dayton.

The Wright Flyer III holds the distinction of being the only aircraft designated as a National Historic Landmark in the United States.
