The November meeting of the Jackson Purchase Historical Society will be hosted at the Everett-Stewart Airport in Union City on November 2nd.
The meeting will focus on the history of aviation in northwest Tennessee.
The program will feature industrial historian and dean of the Paul Meek Library at UT Martin, Dr. Erick Nordberg.
The state of Tennessee has many important footnotes in early aviation history.
The region’s fair weather also drew the attention of the military, with significant installations during both world wars.
The meeting will begin at 10:30 in one of the airport’s historic 1942 hangars.
