He represented Cheyenne, the seat of Laramie County, Wyoming, where he resided from 1935 to 1988.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Bill McCarthy, Aviation pioneer dies at age 103 )〕 In 1995, Johnson was among the first four inductees to the Wyoming Aviation Hall of Fame in Cheyenne.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=WAHF List of Inductees )〕
A test pilot, Johnson developed several aviation businesses and created various innovations for pilots that are still in use. "He will forever be remembered as one of Wyoming's greatest aviators, as well as a truly great citizen of this state for many years," said John Richard Waggener, president of the Wyoming Aviation Hall of Fame and an associate archivist with the American Heritage Center at the University of Wyoming in Laramie.〔
==Early years and education==
Johnson was born in Goodland, Newton County, Indiana, fewer than three years after the Wright Brothers first flew at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. Johnson was the fourth of ten children born on a farm at a time when horses still plowed fields and steam fueled harvesting machines. Johnson built the family car from parts in a junkyard. As a teenager, he started a mechanics business to earn money for college. In 1930, he graduated from Purdue University, with a Bachelor of Science degree in mechanical engineering.〔
