An aviation pioneer and executive whose flying career began in 1928, his interest in early flight led him to research and write Kill Devil Hill, an award-winning study of the Wright brothers. He also received the Wright Brothers Memorial Trophy, the aviation industry's most coveted and prestigious award for public service.
