    A recently announced addition to the agenda of the 24th annual induction ceremony of the Wisconsin Aviation Hall of Fame (WAHF) makes the event a “must do”. The ceremony is scheduled for Saturday, October 17 at the Experimental Aircraft Association’s (EAA’s) AirVenture museum located in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. 

    Yesterday, WAHF announced that Jeff Skiles, Wisconsin native and US Airways co-pilot, will receive the Wisconsin Airport Management Association’s Person of the Year Award during the ceremony. You may recall that Skiles and Captain Chesley Sullenberger successfully ditched their Airbus 320 in the Hudson River on January 15, 2009.  Read the WAHF press release for the full story.

    The public is invited to attend the ceremony. The invitation can be printed, completed, and mailed to the enclosed address to secure your seat. But hurry; reservations accepted until October 10.
