First flight

KABITA ROY

In February 2003, Israel released a set of three stamps commemorating 100 years of the Wright Brothers' Flight. The first stamp (NIS 5.90) features the first flight and "tab" portion gives us the flight details. "Tab" is a unique feature of Israeli stamps. The second stamp (NIS 3.30) shows parts of the flying machine. The third stamp illustrates the 1902 Glider after its release.
