Early Birds of Aviation is an organization that tracks people who solo piloted an aircraft before 1916. That year was chosen as the cutoff, because after 1916 the US Army started training large numbers of flyers for World War I. The organization was founded in 1928 and dissolved when the last living Early Bird aviator died. It was later revived to archive the biographies they had collected.
