The best way to revise sentence 3, considering clarity and conciseness, is option **B**: "Achieving the first powered, controlled, and sustained flight in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, in 1903 earned them worldwide recognition."
This revision emphasizes the act of achieving the flight and clearly states the timeframe while maintaining a smooth flow. Options A and C are more wordy, and option D, while correct, does not emphasize the subject (the achievement) as strongly as option B does.
