Answer:

historical

Explanation:

The historical present is the use of a verb in the <u>present tense</u> to refer to an event that took place <u>in the past</u>.

The verb flies is in the present tense; however, it refers to a period of time in the twentieth century, which was almost a hundred years ago. That's why it is called historical present.
