Aviation Day was good to us. We signed up a few for our dinner, possibly one or two more 99s. I am compling
a list of girls interested in Aviation who are under 16. I am interested in helping them understand aviation more
and mentoring them through their pilots license and recruiting them for FWPs when they can join 99s. You must
be 16 to get your medical and take your ground school test. My understanding is you can get your license at 17, but
have not looked it up, as yet.
Our wine and cheese basket was won by the Mom of one of the girls interested
in aviation. We collected $115.00 for our treasury for scholarships.
We sold some things for Breast Cancer
cure and received orders for more pins. I will bring the Breast Cancer clothing to our next meeting for all to
see.
A BIG thank you to Kaye Tucker, Nancy Moore, for bringing your planes and your help, Patty Berg, Anne
Roethke, Anne Miller, Terri Krass for your help during an eventful day. Thank you to Ellen Herr, Jessica Stearns,
Kaye Tucker, Cheryl Dratler for your hard work making the pop rockets. Nancy Moore for her contribution of wine,
and Terry Carbonell for her generous contribution for the rest of the basket. Without you two we wouldn't have
made money. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU to all of you who helped make our booth a success!
Joanna
flew her bird 7.5 hours herself. Again this year, she stopped at sundown. Way to go Joanna!

Physiology Training & Survival Training:
Have you ever wanted to take a spin in the altitude chamber to see how you will react at 25,000'? What is spacial disorientation
and what will it do to you? I have just crashed my plane and survived: now, what do I do until I am rescued? If these questions
have ever popped in to your mind, you might be a candidate for the physiology training and survival training put on by CAMI
out in Oklahoma City. The training is FREE and all you need is 2 days of your time and a current medical certificate. Interested?
