Stinson: What Happened to the Company Built by a Pilot Who Logged Over 16,000 Flight Hours
In 1920, aviator Edward Stinson, also the brother of aviator Katherine Stinson, founded the Stinson Aircraft Company in Dayton, Ohio. After five years, Stinson moved his focus to Detroit, Michigan, for his future aviation projects. At the same time, he worked as a stunt pilot and earned $100,000 a year, which was a large amount at the time. He discovered that Detroit’s business community was open to his idea of developing his own airplane. Supported by Alfred V. Verville and local businessmen, members of the Aviation Committee of the Detroit Board of Commerce, Stinson set up the Stinson Aircraft Syndicate in 1925. The committee provided $25,000 to design and build a prototype. This prototype was a biplane with an enclosed cockpit that could carry four passengers and was powered by a Whirlwind J-4 air-cooled radial engine. The test flights took place at Packard Field in Roseville, Michigan, a suburb northeast of Detroit. The Stinson Detroiter SB-1 first flew from Packard Field on January 25, 1926. The airplane was unusual for the time, with an enclosed cabin. It was also equipped with heat, upholstered seats, and an electric cigar lighter, making it comfortable for passengers during cold Michigan winters. The plane became popular, and in February, Stinson offered flights to 70 riders.

Zac Brown Band brings Vegas energy to town, topping a busy metro area music weekend
It’s been a year of love, fear and a lot of work for Zac Brown and the band that bears his name. During the past 11 months, the Zac Brown band released its ambitious ninth studio album, “Love & Fear” — the first Brown produced entirely by himself — and supported it with eight shows at the Sphere in Las Vegas during December and January. And since July, the Grammy Award-winning group, which has 14 No. 1 Country singles to its credit, has been on the road with a show designed to bring some of the Sphere flavor to more modest venues.
