The 1903 Wright Flyer. From the article:

"Ingenuity carries a piece of fabric from the wing of the 1903 Wright Flyer, the Wright Brothers' airplane used in the first controlled powered heavier-than-air flight on Earth. Ingenuity's initial take-off and landing area are named Wright Brothers Field as a tribute."
