Description provided by Party Tails Games on YouTube:
Race your opponents to build and pilot the best “flyers” in the push-your-luck, deck building game First in Flight from Artana. Each player will improve their flyer design with a deck of cards and flying is a blackjack-style challenge to test each design. Players will move their pilots around the board collecting upgrade cards for their deck over the course of 4 rounds. As they take flight and reveal their cards, their goal is to get above 40 and have the highest total at the end of the game. We’ll give you all of our thoughts on First in Flight in our full board game review video.
We were given a copy of the game from the publishers so we could do this review video.

About First in Flight, from BoardGameGeek:
First in Flight is a push-your-luck, deck-building game about the race to early flight. Players take on the roles of the Wright Brothers, Samuel Langley, and other flight pioneers, racing to build and pilot the “flyers” that preceded modern airplanes.
Each player's flyer design is represented by a deck of cards that they can steadily improve and refine, and which may include unknown design flaws that threaten their success.
Flying is a blackjack-style challenge to test a design, break new records, and gain experience -- hopefully without crashing. Then, players head back to the workshop to refine their flyers and improve their chances on future flights. There are dozens of available technologies, pilot skills, and friends in the field available for players to customize their own play style and strategy.
