In 1922 Ivan Gates organized the Gates Flying Circus. It was considered the grand daddy of all flying air shows. Made up of mostly WWI ex-military flyers, it captivated crowds with daredevil flight performances, wing walking and parachuting demonstrations.
My Grandfather began his aviation career barnstorming in a $250 war surplus Jenny and then later flying for Gates Flying Circus. Orville Wright signed his license, license number 1000. My father came along at a time my grandfather was buying surplus PT19s and Stearmans for a few hundred dollars. My father continued the passion for flying and owned several aircraft over the years. My brother flew for Cole Palen's Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome. In his last few days, my dad's eyes twinkled when I brought some flying magazines to his bedside. In honor of my dad, I'm continuing our aviation heritage.
