Well, IT'S OFFICIAL!!! Susan and I submitted our application to compete in the air race this year, and (drum roll, please!), it was APPROVED!!! So, we are officially CLASSIC RACER #37 in the 2022 Women's Air Race Classic (ARC) - YAY!!!
Now, the hard-core preparation begins! She and I will meet in person for the 1st time in March at the Women in Aviation Convention in Nashville, TN. Then, in May, when I'm finished teaching kindergarten & 1st grade for the school year, I will fly to TN and spend a week planning, strategizing, and flying with Susan in our race plane, "Charlie", their Piper Dakota!!! I miss my Beechcraft Sundowner, "Joybird"; she was quite formidable in the 2011 ARC. However, I can hardly wait to get to know and fly "Charlie!" Stay tuned - we'll keep you posted as to the preparation and progress of our great air race adventure!!!
