To re-enact history correctly,  you would have to recreate the Wright's first
attempt ended the same as this three days earlier:

http://www.cnn.com/2003/TRAVEL/12/17/first.flight/index.html

Wilbur won a coin toss to be the first pilot,  crashed because he didn't know
how narrow the stall window would be on the powered machine, and Orville got
to make the second attempt.

So it looks like the re-enactment was authentic,  just three days late. :-)

Best,

Jim
