January 2021 Mean That We Have Been Idle CAF RISE ABOVE® Inspiring young people to RISE ABOVE adversity using the lessons and stories of the Tuskegee Airmen and the Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP). I think all of us are happy to see 2020 in the rear-view mirror and we have high hopes that 2021 will bring us back to whatever the new normal in our lives will be. But no New Year celebration is complete without some look back at the last. By any measure, 2020 was tough. Nearly everyone has lost a friend or acquaintance to this terrible virus. But like the Tuskegee Airmen and the WASP, it is adversity that makes us stronger and we at the RISE ABOVE Squadron took that same approach. It was our hope that 2020 would be the full-scale launch of the addition of the WASP Photo courtesy Max Haynes program to our traveling exhibit, but just as our tour was starting, it ended.

Happy New Year! As we embark on 2021, filled with hope and longing for new beginnings, we are ready to start a new chapter. We anticipate the latter half of the year to be very busy with events and hope you can join us on the journey. For those of you interested in volunteering with the Traveling Exhibit, we will continue to follow our COVID-protocols to ensure everyone’s safety. To eliminate any unnecessary risk, we will not be hosting an Ambassador Ground School this year, and we look forward to resuming the annual training in 2022. We have plenty of opportunities to volunteer within the squadron. Whether you can spare a little time each month or each week, from your home or on the road with us, we can always use some extra hands to aid in our mission. Our ambassador program has added incentives to recognize the efforts of our volunteers: Volunteer Coordinator • ‘Ambassador of the Year’ Award. The recipient of this award will receive a ride in our Melanie Burden P-51C Mustang Tuskegee Airmen. • For every event you volunteer each season, your name is entered into a draw for a prize package. • For those that help-out behind in the scenes in the comfort of your own home, you will receive a thank you gift. • Volunteers that help at 4 or more events in a season or take on a project behind the scenes, will have an additional opportunity for a flight in our P-51C Mustang Tuskegee Airmen. • Accommodations at an event are provided for the first volunteer to sign up, who lives outside of the area. If you are interested in joining our team, please go to our website at cafriseabove.org and find out how you can become a CAF RISE ABOVE Ambassador today! What is your silver lining? The last six months have been a blur; staying healthy, happy and incredibly busy. Following a decision to leave my job with the drone company over philosophical differences, I spent several months meeting with potential investors. In the midst of that, we began construction on a long-awaited garage, and I assumed some responsibility for duties performed by a general contractor. The pandemic forced a pivot towards assisting my wife’s transition to remote teaching her fifth graders, with tech support, and taking care of our two dogs. On the plus side, the shutdown brought a number of unsolicited voice-over projects my way, as former clients sought me out to update work produced for them over the last 10-12 years. An unexpected delay in the start of work with the US Census Bureau provided four months to focus on projects around the house, fulfilling responsibilities as a board member with a local land trust, and trustee at one of the oldest churches in our State. I learned a lot about my fellow Americans while helping with the decennial headcount this summer. With lots of gas in the tank, I’m looking for my next adventure... Ambassador Bob Sheppard OUR MISSION IN ACTION Students who have been inspired by the lessons and legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen. As an eleven-year-old fifth grader, have realized that I can use these principles in my own life as proof of this. I can AIM HIGH so that I can get the job of a world changing comedian instead of a “nonworld” changing person with a job where I can’t choose my path in the job. I can also USE my BRAIN to figure out problems, to solve them and to teach others in a funny way. But I might be late for everything if I wasn’t READY TO GO by laying things out the night before. I BELIEVE IN MYSELF by being confident that I can reach my goals. I can NEVER QUIT by remembering that my goals can help the world. I can EXPECT TO WIN by trying my absolute best to achieve my goals. So, using the principles that the Tuskegee Airmen used I can make the world better and live a happy life. ~Caleb Bonner Grade 5 I just wanted to let you know that the students read the booklet “RISE ABOVE: The Story of the Tuskegee Airmen”. We read it together whole class, and when we finished the story, the students clapped. At that point they wrote a poem about the subject titled “When I’m a Tuskegee Airman.” Their perspective on the topic is amazing for such young minds. Thank you for making these materials available for the kids and for expediting the shipping to make today’s lesson possible. ~Gay Carlson, Teacher at Ricks School at the University of Denver, Denver, Colorado This is one of the poems written by a student from the Ricks School at the University of Denver, Denver, Colorado When I become a Tuskegee Airman, I am going to taste the delicious food my mother made for me the day before I go into flight school.

  • Airspace Transcript Season 4, Episode 9 Chicago Flyer
    AirSpace Podcast Season 4, Episode 9: Chicago Flyer Theme music up and under Matt: Welcome to AirSpace from the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum, I'm Matt. Emily: I'm Emily. Nick: And I'm Nick. Emily: In the early days of aviation flying was expensive and dangerous. And even if you could come up with the money, there were often establishment barriers like racism and sexism in the way. Matt: In Chicago, a group of Black aviators who called themselves the Challenger Air Pilots Association, created a club and a community that has since helped thousands of Black pilots learn to fly. Nick: And when the government started to invest in civilian and military pilot training programs, the Challenger Club was instrumental in lobbying to include Black aviators in those programs. Emily: We're looking back to the 1930s in the skies above Chicago today on AirSpace. Theme music up and out Emily: So the story of what becomes the Challenger Air Pilots Association starts off with two auto mechanics, and a broken down car in Detroit, Michigan. Nick: If we were making a movie out of this, this would be a really fun scene in the first act. This would be where it all starts to come together. So we've got these two mechanics, Cornelius Coffey, and John C. Robinson. And before this moment, they've got sort of similar paths to each other, but also to what we normally hear as the genesis of a great aviator or pilot later on. They either rode in an airplane at an early age, or they saw a barnstormer at an early age, and they're both interested in this.

Thirty­three of the region's 35 riders attending the Finals hailed from Texas with an almost even distribution of Adult Amateurs (16) and Open riders (19).
