Eyerly Aircraft Company was a designing and manufacturing company in Salem, Oregon. It began in the aircraft industry, but later shifted to amusement rides. It was founded by Lee Eyerly in 1930. == Aircraft manufacturing == Lee Eyerly founded Eyerly Aircraft Company in 1930 to manufacture two inexpensive ways to train pilots which he devised when the Great Depression hit. The first was the Whiffle Hen,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Oregon Aviation Hall of Fame )〕 a plane which only burned two US gallons (8 L) of fuel per hour of flight. The second was a ground-based flight training device patented under the name "Orientator". The Orientator consisted of a small airplane suspended in what looked like the tines of a giant tuning fork. Air from the electrically driven propeller passed over the wings and rudder, and the operator controlled the movements of the plane in a manner similar to a real aircraft. The Orientator was produced commercially and eventually renamed the Acroplane.
