Kites were the first objects created by humans that were able to use wind to create lift and drag forces… which would later become instrumental in developing aircraft. The first kites are believed to have been made in Asia as far back as 11,500 years ago, and have been popular in China since the 5th century BC. Today, with such a range of materials available, designs have become larger.....and crazier than ever… so, with that in mind, hold on to your hats.
