Mission, Vision, Goals
The Order of the Daedalians honors the memory of the original World War I aviators who were the first to fly our country's airplanes in time of war. The tenets of the order are: First, to place Nation above self; second, to be worthy of the trust and confidence of fellow Daedalians. Our vision is to reach out to all eligible members and provide informative and entertaining gatherings of existing members. We honor all members, and remember those who have given of themselves in conflict and war.
Motto of the Order : "Volabamus" (We Flew) and "Volamus" (We Fly)
History of the Stinsons Flight
The Flight is named for the four Flying Stinsons who played an important role in aviation history in San Antonio before and during World War I. Katherine, Eddie, Marjorie
and Jack are all enshrined in the Texas Aviation Hall of Fame. The Stinsons Flight was chartered in 1964 by Colonel Carl Crane, USAF (Retired), and a group
of Founder Members. Col Crane was the first in a long line of Flight Captains of Stinsons Flight, and it has grown to become the largest
in the Order of Daedalians with 500+ members.
