But the chance to fly to a beautiful grass strip in eastern Ohio and meet u... Read More »

Amy Johnson was from my home town, Hull, Yorkshire UK. I use to walk pas... Read More »

Carri Eve Hoagland hopping rides in Wisconsin!

Here’s something that proves the power of ONE. Carri Hoagland sent in this wonderful post that should motivate us all to share our love of flying. “We had our little community Fall Festival and Fish Boil recently (Wisconsin’s largest).
