Introduction to Shuttlesworth

Frederick Lee Shuttlesworth (born Fred Lee Robinson, March 18, 1922 – October 5, 2011)
was a U.S. civil rights activist who led the fight against segregation and other forms of
racism as a minister in Birmingham, Alabama. He was a co-founder of the Southern
Christian Leadership Conference, initiated and was instrumental in the 1963 Birmingham
Campaign, and continued to work against racism and for alleviation of the problems of the
homeless in Cincinnati, Ohio, where he took up a pastorate in 1961. He returned to
Birmingham after his retirement in 2007. He worked with Martin Luther King Jr. during the
civil rights movement, though the two men often disagreed on tactics and approaches.
The Birmingham–Shuttlesworth International Airport was named in his honor in 2008.
The Birmingham Civil Rights Institute Fred L. Shuttlesworth Human Rights Award is
bestowed annually in his name.

== Early life ==
Born in Mount Meigs, Alabama, Shuttlesworth became pastor of the Bethel Baptist Church
in Birmingham in 1953 and was Membership Chairman of the Alabama state chapter of the
National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) in 1956, when the
State of Alabama formally outlawed it from operating within the state. In May 1956,
Shuttlesworth and Ed Gardner established the Alabama Christian Movement for Human
Rights to take up the work formerly done by the NAACP.
The ACMHR raised almost all of its funds from local sources at mass meetings. It used both
litigation and direct action to pursue its goals.

NoteHans-Joachim Pancherz

Hans-Joachim Pancherz (15 April 1914 – 4 May 2008) was a German aviator and test pilot.
He was born in Bytom, then Beuthen, in Upper Silesia. From 1933 he worked as a civilian
flight instructor at the Wü rzburg, Kitzingen and Fü rth flying schools, and at the Dresden Air
War School (Luftkriegsschule 1). In 1934 he gained experience as a test pilot at the E-Stelle
Rechlin, the German test centre and in 1938 was offered the chance to fly for the SCADTA
airline in Colombia.
Returning to Germany in 1940, he began working for Junkers at Dessau as a test pilot,
mainly with Junkers' larger machines, including the Ju 90, Ju 290 and finally the Ju 390. On
15 July 1943 he became one of the first pilots to eject from an aircraft in flight when he
ejected from the Ju 290 SB+QF over Rechlin after the aircraft began to come apart in flight
after a flutter test. He also helped test the Me 163 and the Ju 248, making the latter's first
flight.
During World War II Pancherz was the chief pilot for Junkers on their massive six engined
Ju 390 project. In his own post war recollections in 1969 he declared to the British Daily
Telegraph newspaper from his home in Barcelona that he flew a Ju 390 to Cape Town and
back on an air-to air refuelling mission. Following the war, he flew for the US army of
occupation until 1948 when he went to Sweden.
