Wright and Selfridge in Wright flyer before flight (MIS 63-720-5), National Museum of Health and Medicine Description: Orville Wright and Lt. Thomas Selfridge sit in the Wright flyer before taking off in a demonstration for the U.S. Army Signal Corps. Orville Wright came to Fort Myer, Virginia in September 1908 to demonstrate the Wright Flyer for the U.S. Army Signal Corps division. Lt. Thomas E. Selfridge arranged to be a passenger. During the flight, the right propeller broke and then shattered, and the plane crashed. Selfridge suffered a fracture at the base of his skull (he was not wearing a flight helmet) during the crash and died a few hours later, while Wright survived with several injuries. Selfridge was the first person to die in an airplane crash and the first Active Duty member of the U.S. military to die in a plane crash while on duty.
