Dec 13, 2007 Tailspin Tommy - Midnight Patrol (10-05-41)

ONE of the first aviation comic strips to appear in the nation's funny pages was Tailspin Tommy, which made its debut in the spring of 1928. When readers first meet the youthful Tommy Tomkins, he's living with his widowed mother in the small hamlet of Littleville, about a hundred miles from Denver, Colorado. Tommy works on autos in the village garage, but he's always dreamed of being an aviator. He's sent away for a correspondence course in Aero Engineering, which promises to teach flying by mail, and he waits up nights to watch the local airmail plane fly overhead. He has talked "airplane" so much that the locals have nicknamed him "Tailspin Tommy."
