Arthur Burns "Pappy" Chalk (September 3, 1888 – May 26, 1977) was an American aviation pioneer and the founder of Chalk's Ocean Airways, once the world's oldest continuously operating airline. Born on a farm in Unionville, Illinois, Chalk was an enrolled Choctaw Freedman. At 11, Chalk left home and moved to Paducah, Kentucky, where he worked as a bicycle mechanic. In 1911, he received flying lessons from the famed pilot Tony Jannus in exchange for repairing Jannus's aircraft. Chalk then purchased his own plane, barnstormed for several years, and relocated to Miami in 1917.
