How difficult is it? How different is it? It’s not “rocket science.” It’s not all that different from flying in the U.S., but you do have to do some homework. It’s just another checklist - passport, U.S. Customs & Border Patrol sticker, FCC Radio Station/Operator’s licenses, FAA 3rd class medical or better. The rewards of flying Canada were well worth the extra legwork to get ready to race this year. And at the Terminus, the racers were international pilots! The Air Race Classic (ARC) has flown to Canada before - Toronto (1999) and St. John (20017). These were “before my time” racing, and they were one-off stops - The Terminus. Fly over the border, clear customs, and you’re done. In building the Inside this issue: 2019 course, I quickly decided that “Hey, it’s all the same amount of paperwork. Let’s FLY Canada! Let’s visit some Canadian airports and cities!” So we flew timing Waypoint Schedule 4 lines and stopped in Sault Ste. Marie (US/CA both), North Bay, Brantford, and Welland - all in Ontario. Our Terminus at Niagara Central Dorothy Rungeling Airport AEMSF 5 was just 30 minutes from Niagara Falls and named for a Canadian racer.

  • Jsfirm.Com Attends FAA Wright Brothers Award Presentation to Ann Pellegreno ______
    Lauren Miller / Marketing Assistant 724-547-6203 [email protected] ​ JSfirm.com Attends FAA Wright Brothers Award Presentation to Ann Pellegreno ________________________________________________________________________________________ Roanoke, Texas (March 14, 2019) - JSfirm.com was honored to attend the FAA presentation of the Wright Brothers Master Pilot Award on March 8, 2019. There, Ann Pellegreno was presented the most prestigious award the FAA can issue to pilots who have exhibited professionalism, skill, and aviation expertise for at least 50 years. In 1967, Pellegreno successfully flew a Lockheed 10 Electra on a world flight, closely mirroring Amelia Earhart's flight plan of 1937. On the 30th anniversary of Earhart's disappearance, Pellegreno personally dropped a wreath over tiny Howland Island, where Amelia Earhart was expected to arrive for refueling, but never arrived. Pellegreno then returned to Oakland, CA, completing the 28,000-mile flight on July 7, 1967. Her accomplishments were far reaching, as she became a top female influencer on the aviation scene. Pellegreno served on the Iowa Aeronautics Commission from 1974 to 1975 and on the Iowa Department of Transportation Commission from 1974 to 1976; she was the first woman in the nation to be appointed to a state DOT commission. Pellegreno has received the honors of being inducted into the Forest of Friendship at Atchison, the Kansas, Iowa and Michigan Aviation Halls of Fame, EAA Hall of Fame Antique/Classic Division, and the Iowa Women's Hall of Fame. In Atchison, Kansas, she received the Amelia Earhart Pioneering Aviation Achievement Award. From the Iowa DOT Aviation Division, she received the 2010 Outstanding Involvement in Aviation Award.

  • Industrial Revolution Teaching Guide
    TEACHING WITH PRIMARY SOURCES Industrial Revolution How does innovation impact people’s lives? In the latter 1700s, inventions in the textile industry in Great Britain were the first signs of major changes in a revolution in production that greatly altered many aspects of society. Steam-powered machines began to do what animals or people had formerly done by hand. Textile mills could produce high quality cloth cheaply and in huge quantities. Factories sprang up, creating new jobs for factory workers but driving individual weavers who usually worked at home out of business and leading to the growth of cities. Industrialization spread to the iron industry, creating greater demands for mining of ore and coal. Soon the factory system spread to the rest of Europe and the United States. For their owners, factories could create great wealth. Workers, however, often toiled for long hours for low pay under harsh working conditions. Industrialization of Agriculture A tremendous growth of machine-power transformed agriculture in the 19th Century. Using factory-produced machinery like the steel plow, the reaper, mowers and threshing machines powered by horses, farmers were able to expand the size of their operations and produce far more than they could when farming was done by hand. The invention of the cotton gin to separate seeds from the cotton fiber made cotton-growing profitable and increased the demand for slaves in Southern states. Over the long term, it greatly reduced the number of people required to produce the nation’s food and fiber. Around 1800, nearly 90 percent of Americans were farm families.

  • Lockheed L-10 Electra
    Lockheed L-10 Electra L-10 Electra/C-36 Amelia Earhart's Electra 10E Type Utility aircraft Manufacturer Lockheed Designed by Hall Hibbard Maiden flight 23 February 1934 Number built 149 Variants Electra Junior Super Electra The Lockheed L-10 Electra was a twin-engine, all-metal monoplane airliner developed by the Lockheed Aircraft Corporation in the 1930s to compete with the Boeing 247 and Douglas DC-2. Design and development Clarence "Kelly" Johnson testing an Electra model in the University of Michigan's wind tunnel. The Electra was Lockheed's first all-metal and twin-engine design. (However, some of Lockheed's wooden designs, such as the Orion had been built by Detroit Aircraft Corporation with metal fuselages.) The name Electra came from a star in the Pleiades. The prototype made its first flight on 23 February 1934 with Marshall Headle at the controls. Wind tunnel work on the Electra was undertaken at the University of Michigan. Much of the work was performed by a student assistant, Clarence Johnson. He suggested two changes be made to the design: changing the single tail to double tails (later a Lockheed trademark), and deleting oversized wing fillets. Both of these suggestions were incorporated into production aircraft. Upon receiving his master's degree, Johnson joined Lockheed as a regular employee, ultimately leading the Skunk Works in developing advanced aircraft such as the SR-71 Blackbird. 1 Operational history Aviatrix Amelia Earhart disappeared in a highly-modified Electra on an attempted around-the-world flight in 1937. Later in 1937, H.T. "Dick" Merrill and J.S.
