Early Bird and Flying Pioneer, George W. Beatty contributed a major share to early American aviation history and richly deserves great credit for his many flying accomplishments. A very active pilot during the early days of aviation, he was best known for his duration and weight carrying flights, and was undoubtedly one of the best known and most capable instructors of that time. A very skillful and careful pilot, he had few accidents and taught countless numbers of fledglings to fly, both here and abroad. His name and the extent of his work will long remain in the annals of aviation history. 

Due credit is given Mrs. George Beatty for the photo used and a major contribution to this biography.
