A history report.

A question from Yram prompted a bit of investigion. If you're interested, check out the following dope......



EAA, the Experimental Aircraft Association, is a growing and diverse organization of members with a wide range of aviation interests and backgrounds. EAA was founded in 1953 by a group of individuals in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, who were interested in building their own airplanes. Through the decades, the organization expanded its mission to include antiques, classics, warbirds, aerobatic aircraft, ultralights, helicopters and contemporary manufactured aircraft.


If you check out this link you will find out about Paul Poberenzy, (remember my autographed hat?). The page referenced will give you an exellent overview of EAA, while this page will give the chronology of the event. It's all very interesting, if you like this type of thing... ;-)




Couldn't resist putting this in again......
Thanks for the impetus to investigate, Yram. As many times as I have looked at the EAA site, I never delved into the origins of the organization.








I nearly forgot!! Would someone please carve the melon???
