Cal Rodgers and the Vin Fiz

On Saturday afternoon February 25, get ready for a thrill ride as speaker Vincent Ciaramella tells the story of "Cal Rodgers and the Vin Fiz: Pittsburgh and the First Transcontinental Flight." 

In his 1:00 P.M. presentation at the Community Rooms of the Jefferson Hills Borough Building, Vince will trace the many obstacles Cal Rodgers faced making the first flight from New York to California only eight years after the Wright Brothers flew at Kitty Hawk. A truly heroic feat, Cal Rodger’s historic flight was beset with problems, many of which should have ended the plane’s perilous journey. Both society and community members alike are welcome to join in the fun at this free program and experience vicariously this adventure in early flight through the captivating storytelling of a local historian.
