Welcome to the home of Classic 47 sponsored by WINGS OF HOPE

Meet Bev Cleair and Teresa Camp - Wings of Hope's 2010 pilot team. Classic 47 is a 2000 Cessna 182 S which will dutifully carry Wings of Hope's vision of peace and self-sustaining humanitarian programs for a better world.

Bev and Teresa are poised to race the Air Race Classic June 22 - June 25, 2010 from Fort Meyers, Florida to Frederick, Maryland, a 2157 nautical mile jaunt. This is the oldest air race in the country exclusively for women pilots. Its origins date back to the 1930's when the likes of Amelia Earhart and company were competing and dominating the Powder Puff Derby

6/24 Late pictures

Here are a couple of the crew and plane from the West Virginia Leg. Upon inspection the fiber optic that sends a visual confirmation of the red navigation lights was missing. Turns out when Bev and Teresa shook the plane, they could hear the rattle of the little lens. Compare the green nav light for reference. More pictures from this leg around 23:00H Central.
