Flying Pioneer, Early Bird Charles W. Herrman must be recorded as one of the group of aviation enthusiasts who showed their faith in the new science of flight by buying a plane and learning to operate it during the early period of growth. While he did not do much flying, and was not a licensed pilot, he nevertheless did assist in the early start of aviation. Later he became a successful business man and established an industry that has become one of the nation's leading boat building companies of the present time.
