FROM SMITHSONIAN WEBSITE:Basil Lee Rowe (1896-1973) was born and educated in Shandaken, New York. Two years after his high school graduation, he began his flying career in 1914 as an apprentice to Turk Adams. He served in the US Army Air Service during World War I, after which he became a barnstormer and racing pilot (1919-25). Rowe organized the West Indian Aerial Express in 1927, but it was absorbed almost immediately by Pan American Airlines. Rowe became Pan Am\'s Senior Pilot and during his first ten years flew a record number of hours and surveyed most of the new routes. He rejoined the USAAF during World War II, serving on the Cannonball Project, and returned to commercial aviation afterwards. Following his retirement in 1956, Rowe wrote his autobiography Under My Wings.
