We think many of you might be interested in this event. This is not an OASIS event. ======================================================== Western Museum of Flight Celebrity Lecture Series January 16 - 11 am Dominguez Air Meet - 1910 Centennial of Flight Alison Bruesehoff, Executive Director Dominguez Rancho Adobe In 1910, people on the West Coast got their first chance to see a magnificent new technology - aviation - demonstrated on the grounds of the Dominguez Rancho. Among the crowd, no doubt gaining inspiration from the historic, ten-day event, were some of the people who were to become the great pioneers of the California aviation industry. The crowd watched in awe, while the first International Aviation Meet in America unfolded before their eyes. Please join us for a presentation of the Dominguez Air Meet Centennial with Alison Bruesehoff, who will take us back to that magical moment in history. The lecture is free to Museum Members.
