Details
Bettis Field and the ABCs of Pittsburgh Aviation - American aviation took wing in the 1920s in fabric-covered biplanes from local airports that were little more than reclaimed cow pastures--like Bettis Airfield in West Mifflin.

Adults are invited to join local historian Sue Morris and Heinz History Center's Director of Publications Brian Butko as they share stories from their new book about the brave men and women aviators who lifted off from that little airfield to touch the skies above Pittsburgh and beyond. The authors will be selling and signing books (19.95 +tax) afterwards.

This program will take place in the Community Center.

Space is limited. Please sign up online for this South Park Library adult program at https://southpark.librarycalendar.com/event/bettis-where-pittsburgh-aviation-took-6522.
