· Describe the milestone.
· Explain why the milestone was significant in the history of flight.

The instructions say "in the format of your choice." It looks like you will have seven to ten items. Go find that many events that occurred along the way to bring the state of flight up to today. Begin at the beginning, and end with now. Or you could even go into the future, if you've found documentation about something that is expected to happen.
