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

We are waiting to check in at the Homewood Suites in Fort Myers. They moved us without a written confirmation to this hotel across the street. I hope this still works for us.--TAC

Good night's sleep at Holiday Inn. Breakfast of oatmeal, fruit, grits, and cheese grits! Bought a charger/battery at Wal-mart. Weight penalty is worth the situational awareness. At KAYS prepping plane for last leg to terminus. --TAC
