The Wisconsin Aviation Hall of Fame announced today that five
Wisconsin aviators would be inducted into the Hall of Fame at a
banquet to be held at the EAA AirVenture Museum in Oshkosh (WI).
Among this year's inductees are two men with similar, yet equally
deserving backgrounds, Field Morey and Harold "Duffy" Gaier.
Avionics technicians who want to keep pace with the latest in
installation practices and proven techniques will not want to miss
this training opportunity offered by the Aircraft Electronics
Association (AEA). All the acceptable methods and techniques for
panel-mounted avionics installation will be covered in this
seminar, to be held at Tarrant County College (Northwest Campus) in
Ft. Worth, Texas.
Ceremony To Honor Significant Historic Events In Aviation And
Navigation
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration will honor
the contributions of Wright Brothers, and the recovery and
restoration of the Bodie Island (NC) baseline distance measurement
of 1848 (the precise land survey reference line) in a special
ceremony Friday. NOAA's National Ocean Service's National
Geodetic Survey (NGS) will dedicate commemorative monuments
honoring both historic events. NOAA is an agency of the U.S.
Department of Commerce.
