On July 4, 1914, the city of Seattle held a grand National Day celebration. When the celebration culminates, a plane appears in the air. The pilot is called Maroni, who maneuvers the plane steadily and does all kinds of wonderful performances. The people below looked up at the "iron bird" high in the air, and the crowd erupted in enthusiastic cheers from time to time. It can be seen that they are full of curiosity about the monster of the airplane that can soar high in the air, because at that time, the airplane was a new thing that was rarely touched.

After the plane landed, Maroni smiled and walked out of the cabin, and the crowd rushed up, quickly surrounding him. To be able to manipulate such an "iron bird", Maroni's bravery is really enviable.
"What's it like to fly in the air?" Hanging in the air, not being able to go up to the ground, aren't you afraid that it will fall down?" People asked questions in tongues. Maroni smiled and said, "You can experience this for yourself." How about anyone who wants to fly with me?"
Flying in the air
He looked around, and no one answered. Obviously, everyone has endless fear of this "iron bird". At this time, a young man stood up and said loudly, "Sir, I want to fly with you to heaven!" The brave young man, William Edward Boeing, was a graduate engineer at Yale University.
Then, under the control of Maroni, the plane flew steadily into the sky, and Boeing flew into the sky for the first time in his life, and his heart was somewhat unsettled. When his mood eased, he asked curiously, observing every movement of Maroni's plane.
Boeing
After 20 minutes, the plane landed steadily. Boeing couldn't wait to get out of the cabin and shouted to the people around him: "Great! You can go up and give it a try!"
Boeing has since developed a keen interest in airplanes. He approached his friend Westford and talked about his desire to pursue a career in aircraft manufacturing. The two hit it off and immediately decided to build the plane from cheap local wood.
In 1916, the first pontoon wooden aircraft was built. Boeing personally flew the plane to conduct the test, and this time the flight test was very successful. That same year, they formally established Pacific Airlines Products in the seattle suburbs. In 1917, the company was renamed "Boeing Company".

Today, Boeing has become the world's largest aircraft manufacturer. They produce various models of "Boeing" aircraft, which fly almost all over the world.
major principle:
There are too many "impossibilities" in this world, but as long as we dare to "stand up" and dare to try new things, then there will be many "possibilities" to create miracles! Yes, only those who dream and dare to soar can finally soar freely in the long sky.
