At Coggin Ford in Jacksonville, FL, we're proud to celebrate National Aviation Day in honor of the development of aviation and its many innovations over the last century. Orville Wright -- of the legendary Wright brothers, of course -- was born on August 19, 1871. In 1939, FDR decided it was high time to give their efforts and successes a lasting recognition.
On this day, we honor bravery in innovation that results in ground-breaking results.
