Orville's Aviators
Outstanding Alumni of the Wright Flying School, 1910-1916
The half dozen pioneer flyers profiled here were all promising graduates of the Wright Brothers School of Aviation, which flourished at Simms Station near Dayton, Ohio, from 1910 to 1916. Though they came from dissimilar backgrounds, taken collectively these airmen fairly represent their 113 fellow alumni in their all-consuming love of flying; superb knowledge of the aircraft of the day; a shared dash of sardonic fatalism in an otherwise optimistic outlook on life; gritty persistence; and absolute devotion to their instructors and the Wrights.
