The Aviation Act of 1917 temporarily increased funding for the United States Army Signal Corps.
The act provided provisions for airship or dirigible operations controlled by the U.S. Army Signal Corps Aeronautical Division. It also granted President Woodrow Wilson emergency authority to maintain, manufacture, operate, purchase, and repair airships and other aerial machines.
Sightseers’ Delight started publishing in June 2016. The site, published by The DeFeo Groupe, collects and curates content about places where historical events large and small happened. The site builds off the legacy of The Travel Trolley, which launched in June 2009. The site aimed to be a virtual version of the trolley tours offered in so many cities.
