Beginning with his early motorcycle and automobile exploits, the text follows Robinson's career from ballooning and dirigible flights to gliders and powered airplanes. Flying with his \"Lucky 13\" talisman, Robinson had many first-flight feats and gave over nine hundred flying exhibitions. Known as a daredevil and a showman, he was also a problem-solver. He invented the tailhook--a device that lets airplanes land safely on the deck of a ship--a concept so successful it is still used today. As a mechanic, inventor, engineer, stunt pilot, test pilot, consultant, and writer, Robinson devoted the majority of his life to aviation and helped to make the dream of human flight a reality. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eHugh Armstrong Robinson\u003c\/i\u003e is the third book in the Goldminds Time Traveler Series highlighting remarkable individuals whose lives provide inspirational stories for young readers.
