EAA Honors Five Aviators With Hall Of Fame Induction On Nov. 14

Henry Kimberly Spirit Of Leadership Award Also To Be Presented

The EAA will recognize the contributions made to the world of flight by five aviators on Thursday, Nov. 14, as it inducts them into the EAA Hall of Fame during a banquet at the EAA Aviation Center in Oshkosh, WI.

“Each of these five individuals has made a unique contribution to the world of flight that has benefited all of us,” said Charlie Becker, EAA’s communities manager. “These inductees serve as an example for everyone involved in flying and represent the best that recreational aviation has to offer. We recognize their commitment and passion for flying and are honored to welcome them into the EAA Halls of Fame.”

The five aviators represent the spectrum of aviation within the EAA community and have achieved notable successes within their particular realm of flight:

  • EAA Ultralight Hall of Fame: Frank Beagle of Kankakee, IL. (posthumous)
  • International Aerobatic Club Hall of Fame: Bill Adams of Waukesha, WI. (posthumous)
  • Vintage Aircraft Association Hall of Fame: Susan Dusenbury of Walnut Cove, NC.
  • Warbirds of America Hall of Fame: Lee Lauderback of Orlando, FL.
  • EAA Homebuilders Hall of Fame: Phillip J. Lockwood of Sebring, FL.

In addition, Judy Mueller of Random Lake, WI, will receive the Henry Kimberly Spirit of Leadership Award for her efforts on behalf of EAA and the local community. Mueller has long been involved as a volunteer in AirVenture activities, including as a chairman for Theater in the Woods evening programs at Oshkosh.

A limited number of tickets remain for the dinner and program, which begins with a 6 p.m. reception. Tickets are priced at $50 each.
