Holdrege, Nebraska, Harvest Festival. There on November 13th Boshek, at age 27, was killed instantly looping. He had just completed a loop when something appeared to have happened that caused him to crash, completely out of control, from 3,000 feet. His remains were returned to Scranton, Pennsylvania, for burial in Cathedral Cemetery. He was survived by his mother, a brother, and five sisters. 

Flying Pioneer Albert Boshek did not live to gain the renown he deserved but did become an active and proficient early pilot. Mechanic, aviator, plane builder, and instructor he deserves his rightful place in early American aviation history.
