The main terminal at Denver International Airport is named in the honor of aviation pioneer, Elrey B. Jeppesen. Jeppesen was a pilot who started flying in the 1920's. After the depression he was delivering the mail when he realized that pilots needed better charts than the road maps they were using. Today, the company he started supplies charts to most pilots, world-wide.
This statue of Jeppesen is in the middle of the security screening area at DIA.
