Alan and Dale Klapmeier, the brothers who co-founded Cirrus Design in the mid-1980s, are among six people who will be inducted into the National Aviation Hall of Fame in Dayton, Ohio, next year.
The other individuals honored by the Hall of Fame include Emily Warner, who flew for Frontier Airlines in the 1970s; the late Steve Wittman, an air racer and aircraft designer for which the airport in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, is named; Bert Acosta, an early test pilot; and USAF Brig. Gen. James McDivitt, whose career spanned the Korean War and the Apollo space program.
