Presented by Oregon Aviation Historical Society

Do you know that you can design, build, license, and fly your very own full-scale aircraft? Do you know that Oregon is home to the most successful line of kit-built aircraft in the US? Do you know that without the pioneering contributions of Oregon pilots none of this would be possible!?!

Join us to hear the story of Oregon’s most notorious pioneering pilots, known as the “Beaverton Outlaws.” These aviators literally flew in the face of the federal government in the 1930s when home built aircraft was marked illegal. This presentation will feature a video history of these men, complete with oral interviews of the outlaws themselves, highlighting what it was like to fly in the US at the dawn of aviation. Join us to discover how these men, through their passion and dedication, forever changed the face of general aviation, as we know it today.
