In 1903, the Wright Brothers made their first flight. That
same year, William Boeing left Yale for the West. In 1910,
while living in Seattle, he attended his first air meet and
began his fascination with aviation. He and Navy engineer
friend George Westervelt constructed their first twin float
seaplane in Boeing's boathouse. In 1916, Boeing incorporated
his company, and the rest is aviation history.
