摘要

Eugene engledow parks his van in front of his hangar and hops out to show us his airplane. He could be taken for a retiree in his 70s, but, amazingly, Engledow was born October 7, 1913. He doesn't wear glasses, his memory's sharp, and he only wears hearing aids because of years spent working around jet and rocket engines. His 1946 Aeronca Chief is immaculate. "I made five landings in her on my 100th birthday," he says. No, he didn't have a safety pilot on board, and his flight review is current. For now, he only flies as a sport pilot, although his medical examiner says he could pass the third class physical. Now living in Bolivar, Missouri, Engledow grew up as a Midwestern farm kid watching airplanes. A natural mechanic, he moved to California in 1936, finding work with a Ford dealer in Oxnard. Santa Paula Airport was nearby, and he began taking lessons in a 38-horsepower Aeronca C-3. Because the operator wouldn't let students solo the unreliable single-ignition C-3, his solo was in a Piper J-2 Cub.
