Description
February 10, 1912, was an exciting day for Tulare County, CA, residents who showed up for the county's first airplane landing, scheduled at the old fairgrounds one mile east of the city of Tulare. Pilots Frank Bryant and Roy N. Frances were to land their planes. The Santa Fe Railroad ran a special train to Tulare, and an estimated 4,000 people were on hand. Bryant's plane had a forced landing between Tulare and the fairground.
