Meet the Inspiration

Named after Bessie Coleman (1892–1926), the first African-American to hold a pilot's license. Denied the opportunity to learn to fly in the United States, so she saved and obtained sponsorships in Chicago to go to France for flight school, and pursue her dream.

With the age of commercial flight still a decade or more in the future, Bessie realized that in order to make a living as a civilian aviator she would have to become a "barnstorming" stunt flier, performing dangerous tricks in the air for paying audiences with the then-still-novel technology of airplanes.

She then became a high-profile pilot in notoriously dangerous air shows in the United States. She was popularly known as "Queen Bess" and "Brave Bessie".
