Neil Armstrong's father was a state auditor for Ohio: hence he grew up in several communities, including Warren before the family settled in Wapakoneta. "Armstrong developed an interest in flying at age two when his father took him to the National Air Races in Cleveland. His interest intensified when he went for his first airplane ride in a Ford Tri-Motor, a "Tin Goose," in Warren at age six. From that time on, he claimed an intense fascination with aviation."[2]
