You want to talk about Aviation pioneers? The very first flying man was the German Otto Lilienthal who flew with his glider a few meters before he broke his neck caused by a crash.
Your first motorized flight was done by the Wright Bros.
We build the ME-109 Messerschmidt which scares some allied pilots to death until the P-xx comes out.
The first jet engine was manufactured and used by German engineers and if you hadnt conquered the knowledge and willing scientists from our country, you probably would have prop engines up to day
There is surely no Mr. Airbus present, this a european conjunction of several firms with the goal to build aircrafts. First flight was 1982 and since then they develope.
