A statue stands outside the Pearson Airfield museum in Vancouver, WA harkening back to the earliest days of aviation and the history found on this history-laden site. Step inside this free museum and see samples of the earliest forms of aviation in all their glory for a taste of how frightening those early flights were and note how short the lives were of many of the early pioneers of flight.
