       For the first 10 years after the Wright brothers' original flight in 1903, flying was only a sport．It was a pastime for daredevils （不怕死的人）．One very determined daredevil was Bessie Coleman．She was the first black woman to fly an airplane．

       Coleman, born in Texas in 1892, the tenth of 13 children, dreamed of becoming a pilot．To earn money for flying lessons, she washed other people's laundry．At the age of 19 she took a train to Chicago, where she began to study in a beauty school．For five years she worked in a barbershop, and then she looked for a flying school．There were none in the United States that would teach women, but Coleman heard that there were schools in France that would．So she studied the language and sailed off to France．

       When she returned to the United States in 1921, Coleman was the first licensed black woman pilot．Her "aerial acrobatic （航空特技）exhibitions" impressed audiences．She took her airplane through loop-the-loops and flew upside down．She did slow rolls and sharp rolls．Audiences were amazed when she performed a move called "falling leaf．"

       Coleman became a famous person．She performed her acrobatic flights all over the country．She also spoke to African-American audiences in schools, churches, and theatres．Fly, she told them．Be a part of the new aviation（航空） industry．Many young African-American men listened to her．Some became honored military pilots during World War II．Many others made their careers in aviation．

       On April 29, 1926, Coleman was flying when a tool carelessly left in the airplane hit the control stick．The plane went into a dive and did not recover．The daring 34-year-old pilot was killed．
