Crew Prepares for final leg

Well since this is the final leg, it is appropriate that we show a little too! No, it's not like Teresa to lay down on the job and let Bev do all the work but that is what this attached picture implies. The remaining two shots are on 6/25/10 the last day of the race and the ladies are dressed with Wings of Hope in mind.

It appears to be fairly calm weather in the East today. Although that makes for the safest flying, the team has been particularly successful skimming along between layers to pick-up favorable tailwinds and speed. That makes for some turbulent and bumpy flying but kind of like a bucking bronco - FUN TOO!

So unless, the crew can hold out in hopes of a leading edge of a pop-up disturbance, they will likely head on in to the big finish sometime before Noon Eastern. If you check the Air Race Classic website or THIS LINK, they have a feed into the Tower Operations frequency there in Frederick, Maryland. You can listen to the various pilots as they talk to the tower and set-up for their final fly-bys and prepare to land. So check in for updates all day from the crew. Pictures will likely come in later tonight. Wish 'em a safe flight for the final leg. Congratulations are soon to be in order!
