Recently, a stop at the gravesite of E.L “Slonnie” Sloniger and his wife, Katherine, has been added to the walking tour. An early-day aviation pioneer from Moorefield, Nebraska, E.L. was given the nickname “Old Number One” because he was the first pilot hired at an airline which later became American Airlines.
