July 30, 1926: Henry Ford marks his 63rd birthday by unveiling a prototype for the Ford Flivver one-seat airplane at his Dearborn, Mich., complex. The midget craft with a 22-foot wingspan and weighing just 350 poinds is conceived of as a mass-market offering in a future where everyone will fly. 1/2
