Eugene Ely, Daredevil Aviator
First Shipboard Landing and Takeoff
Eugene Burton Ely was buried the day after his 25th birthday, less than a half-mile from where he was born. Until 1911, the last year of his life, hardly anyone knew his name - a century later, nothing has changed. If he is known at all it's because he was the first to land an airplane on the deck of a ship. To some, he is the father of naval aviation - but many details of his life have been lost until now.
