Miller opened the Mission Inn
in 1903, the same year that Orville
and Wilbur Wright made their first
flight at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina.
The brother’s first flight on
December 17, 1903 was only 12
seconds long. They proved it was
possible to fly a machine that
was heavier than air. That same
day the brothers made three more
flights, each longer than the
first.
