Join us on January 10th for the opening day of the 2010
Yearlong Centennial of the 1910 Los Angeles International
Aviation Meet on the Dominguez Air Field.

January 10 is the opening day of the "100 Years of
Aviation" exhibit. The exhibit is about early aviation in
California leading up to the aerospace industry. It also
includes a diorama of the 1910 Air Meet taken from the
grandstands perspective. This exhibit opens at the
museum, then will travel to different museums and
organizations in the Los Angeles and Orange Counties. Come
see the exhibit on its opening day!

Ken Pauley, author of The 1910 Los Angeles International
Aviation Meet will give a talk about the creation of one
of only two books ever published on the 1910 Aviation
Meet. Ken is the 1st speaker of our 12-speaker speaker
series and offers a wonderful look at the 1910 Air Meet
and its legacy.

We will also be unveiling in coordination with the United
Postal Service and the Ries Chapter #48 Los Angeles
American First Day Cover Society the Centennial Pictorial
Postmark "First Aviation Meet in America."

Come see the exhibit, have Ken Pauley sign the The 1910
Los Angeles International Aviation Meet book and receive
the "First Aviation Meet in America" postmark.

This is an event that occurs only once in 100 years and we
hope to see you there!

The event is from 12pm to 4pm on January 10th at the
