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

Whew! Finished all our meetings! Had a nice bowl of chowder and a club sandwich for lunch. All the new racers had a mandatory meeting at 2pm that the veterans were not allowed to attend. Bev said that they mainly told stories and gave more hints on what to put on your checklists. I finished packing my stuff to ship and prepped our checklists. Then I took a short nap. I needed that because I keep waking up too early. Must be excited. --TAC
