-Would the Wright brothers’ first powered airplane have been successful if they had chosen other materials?

This is the best revision of the research question because it provides an avenue for exploration rather than just asking a simple question that can be answered in a single sentence. Included in this question would be the answer to her first question, because you cannot determine if other materials would have been better unless you know the materials that were actually used, but it also allows for interpretation and in depth analysis too.
