According to Google, the history of aviation dates to the 5th century with the invention of kites in China. The famous artist Leonardo da Vinci created the first drafts for a rational aircraft in his paintings in the 15th century. In 1647, Tito Livia Burattini developed a model aircraft featuring four pairs of glider wings.
