When did the first ever manned air flight fatality take place and who was killed in the accident? ++++++++++ 12-29-02, 03:41 PM Sherasi I think I already answered this!
Lt. Thomas E. Selfridge died Sept. 17, 1908, at Fort Meyer, Va., as Orville demonstrated the Wright's airplane for the U.S. Army. Orville was severely injured in the accident.
