>Why has never been a major movie about the Weight Brothers and their success in fix wing flight?

No "major" movies maybe, but some excellent documentaries. I've watched "Kitty Hawk: The Wright Brothers' Journey of Invention" and "Wright Brothers' Flying Machine". Another one, "The Magic of Flight" is excellent, although it's not only about the Wright Brothers, but about flight itself. They are all excellent. Check IMDb.

BTW, I just checked IMDb and apparently there is a movie coming out in 2013 (called "Kitty Hawk"). No idea if it's supposed to be "major" movie or not though.
