Aviation in Washington, D.C. : ウィキペディア英語版 | Aviation in Washington, D.C.
The United States capital, Washington, D.C., has been the site of several events in the nation's history of aviation, beginning from the time of the American Civil War, often for the purpose of promoting the adoption of new aeronautical technologies by the government. It has also been home to several aircraft manufacturers and aviation organizations (both government and civilian), and many aerospace contractors have maintained a presence there as well. == Events ==
The first aeronautical event was the tethered demonstration flight of a hot air balloon, the ''Enterprise'', by Thaddeus S. C. Lowe to Abraham Lincoln. The flight included the demonstration of a balloon-to-ground telegraph, resulting in Lowe being appointed to the newly created position of Chief Aeronaut.
