Image via Wikipedia

Visual Description:  A serious discussion at Kitty Hawk, NC.

NKRACY  =  CRANKY,  DUKLER  =  LURKED,  OIONPS  =  POISON,  TIEHRV  =  THRIVE,  CAGINT  =  ACTING,  VSLIEW  =  SWIVEL   —   Giving us:  CREDOSTHIINGWI

Clue/Question:  Wilbur and Orville made this when they chose to put two wings on their plane.

Answer:  THE “WRIGHT“ DECISION

(Uh oh!  Looks like my Saturday spoiler spoiled Sunday’s Jumble!  Kinda.  I can see why they held off a day on it, though.  14 letters is a lot – too much? – for a weekday Jumble answer.  Better suited to the Sunday format.  The only new word today is “lurked”.  I had some trouble getting it, as I did with both “acting” and “swivel”.  Very nice job on the answer letter layout.  But, most people understand that the Wright brothers were the first to succeed at manned flight.  Nice little pun nonetheless!  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
