1111 Gets Much Help From Contemporaries<br />
IT HAS BEEN said th<strong>at</strong> <strong>the</strong> Experimental <strong>Aircraft</strong> Associ<strong>at</strong>ion's<br />
annual convention <strong>at</strong> Rockford, 111. is <strong>the</strong><br />
friendliest <strong>Fly</strong>-<strong>In</strong> in <strong>the</strong> world. This must be reasonably<br />
true because <strong>the</strong> EAA has enjoyed a tremendous cooper<strong>at</strong>ion<br />
not only from <strong>the</strong>ir members who do much of <strong>the</strong><br />
work of actually producing <strong>the</strong> biggest light aircraft<br />
event but from many organiz<strong>at</strong>ions throughout <strong>the</strong> world<br />
who have similar interests in avi<strong>at</strong>ion.<br />
The OX-5 Club was <strong>the</strong> first to greet <strong>the</strong> EAA advance<br />
crew. This organiz<strong>at</strong>ion did much to assist in setting up<br />
<strong>the</strong> displays. The Air Mail Pioneers of America, The<br />
American Avi<strong>at</strong>ion Historical Society and <strong>the</strong> N<strong>at</strong>ional<br />
Pilots Associ<strong>at</strong>ion all had members present who were a<br />
gre<strong>at</strong> help in presenting a very <strong>at</strong>tractive st<strong>at</strong>ic display.<br />
The Professional Race Pilots' Associ<strong>at</strong>ion put on several<br />
exhibitions with <strong>the</strong>ir midget racers th<strong>at</strong> were very<br />
exciting and brought back fond memories to thousands<br />
of enthusiasts who witnessed <strong>the</strong> demonstr<strong>at</strong>ions by <strong>the</strong><br />
top midget race pilots and aircraft in <strong>the</strong> n<strong>at</strong>ion.<br />
Just wh<strong>at</strong> would have been done without <strong>the</strong> help of<br />
<strong>the</strong> 9506th Air Force Recovery Squadron is hard to<br />
imagine. Their presence on <strong>the</strong> field acting as police in<br />
many capacities saved <strong>the</strong> day when <strong>the</strong> tremendous influx<br />
of visitors thre<strong>at</strong>ened to swamp EAA volunteers<br />
and <strong>the</strong> small force of regular police.<br />
The Air Scouts contributed many small tasks which<br />
when mounted toge<strong>the</strong>r proved to be a gre<strong>at</strong> help to <strong>the</strong><br />
overall completion of planning and executing of <strong>the</strong> plans.<br />
The Antique <strong>Aircraft</strong> Associ<strong>at</strong>ion no doubt was present<br />
in <strong>the</strong> largest number and contributed immensely in<br />
every phase of <strong>the</strong> activity. The many AAA planes th<strong>at</strong><br />
were registered certainly added color to <strong>the</strong> overall pic-<br />

ture, particularly to <strong>the</strong> first time visitor. Besides <strong>the</strong> antique<br />
fly-bys, <strong>the</strong> st<strong>at</strong>ic displays and <strong>the</strong> antique forums<br />
<strong>the</strong>re was much exchange of inform<strong>at</strong>ion and stories<br />
among individuals and small groups.<br />
The members of <strong>the</strong> Soaring Society of America, <strong>In</strong>c.,<br />
no doubt had a wonderful time. They got in many hours<br />
of flying during <strong>the</strong> very cooper<strong>at</strong>ive we<strong>at</strong>her. Spect<strong>at</strong>ors<br />
were impressed by <strong>the</strong> graceful flight of <strong>the</strong> sailplanes<br />
and <strong>the</strong>ir apparent effortless flight without power.<br />
The Midwest Waco Club was present with <strong>the</strong>ir classic<br />
aircraft interesting to everyone familiar with <strong>the</strong> colorful<br />
history of <strong>the</strong> Waco.<br />
Radio contact throughout <strong>the</strong> n<strong>at</strong>ion was maintained<br />
all during <strong>the</strong> <strong>Fly</strong>-<strong>In</strong> by <strong>the</strong> Rockford Am<strong>at</strong>eur Radio<br />
Associ<strong>at</strong>ion. These volunteers manned <strong>the</strong>ir short wave<br />
rigs to give members an opportunity to transmit messages<br />
from Rockford to anywhere in <strong>the</strong> n<strong>at</strong>ion without<br />
charge. The ham oper<strong>at</strong>ors reportedly did a big "business".<br />
An intern<strong>at</strong>ional look was given to <strong>the</strong> convention<br />
as a large group of European enthusiasts and members<br />
chartered an airplane and came to <strong>the</strong> <strong>Fly</strong>-<strong>In</strong>. Two clubs,<br />
The Popular <strong>Fly</strong>ing Associ<strong>at</strong>ion of England and <strong>the</strong> Resseau<br />
de Sport de L'Aire of France, were officially represented.<br />
They added much by <strong>the</strong>ir presence and exchange<br />
of ideas, customs, and m<strong>at</strong>erials th<strong>at</strong> differ between <strong>the</strong><br />
two continents.<br />
It would be impossible to list <strong>the</strong> countless individuals<br />
who contributed time, effort and money to <strong>the</strong> actual production<br />
of <strong>the</strong> <strong>Fly</strong>-<strong>In</strong> as well as those ever welcome contributions<br />
of suggestions and plans to handle <strong>the</strong> always<br />
increasing <strong>at</strong>tendance of aircraft, people, and it must be<br />
admitted, automobiles.
