Wiley Post the Daredevil Aviator of the Stratosphere
Wiley Post rose from a Oklahoma farm to become a record setting pilot. He and navigator Harold Gatty first circled the globe in 1931 and, solo, in 1938 completed a near nine day around the world flight. Post lost an eye in 1920 but pursued aviation with driving zeal and backed by F C Hall. He flew the Winnie Mae in high altitude trials, aiming to prove stratosphere potential rather than race records.
