Elinor Otto, 93, became a “Rosie the Riveter” back in 1942 at Rohr Aircraft Corp. in Chula Vista. You’ll still find her working on the assembly line today at Long Beach’s Boeing C-17 plant. Read the wonderful story of this energetic woman, and a bit about the history of the local aerospace industry, here in an LA Times article by Samantha Schaefer.
