LeRoy Meisinger - Balloon Flights: LeRoy’s Connection with Radio Stations and Local People

 Here is an article proving that LeRoy had contact with people in towns as he was flying. It is quaint to know that the townspeople invited them to a banquet. Shows how exciting the flights were to people. I cannot be sure if LeRoy and James took them up on the invitation. I like to think they did.

 

This article was found in The Daily Times, Davenport, Iowa, 03 Jun 1924, page 8.
