The pilot was flying at a relatively low but yet safe al- titude above the ground.

It supports both 12- and 28-volt systems, drawing 0.25 amps at full display brightness. The system has four audio cues which can be enabled by the pilot. Optional modules provide audio interfaces for the aircraft’s flaps and landing gear, as well as a pitot heat relay and a stick shaker interface.

GIRLS TAKE FLIGHT OSHAWA EVENT ATTRACTS HUNDREDS By Gord Mahaffy

T his year the fifth annual Girls Take Flight event was held on April 21 at the Oshawa airport, with 223 girls and women enjoying their first small airplane ride. Many more had the opportunity to rub shoulders with women who have rewarding careers in all branches of aviation, including air- line, military, bush and charter flying, air traffic control with Nav Canada, airport management, engineering and careers with Transport Canada. COPA members can take great pride in knowing that all the local COPA Flights had representatives on-site, including Flight 70 — Oshawa, Flight 44 — Buttonville, Flight 34 — Peter- borough and Flight 101 — Lindsay. There was a big presence from COPA’s national office too.

Aircraft Association (Delta Chapter 85) and the Cessna 150/152 Club. Prior was known for her warm welcome to all members at meetings, always asking how everyone’s flying was going, such as “How is your training progressing? Where have you been? Tell me about it.” We could count on her to volunteer at our annual Poker Run tables and at our 99s airshow booths, where she greeted women and girls with a big smile as they strolled by: “If I can do it, you can do it.” When she saw a glimmer of interest, she was right there with her encouragement. She paid the first year 99s membership fee for a number of young student pilots just to help them get going and to introduce them to the camaraderie and support of the 99s. Prior knew the value of traditional hospitality and always showed up with lots of good food, knowing that a full plate makes for a happy meeting. Even as Prior progressed through her final illness, she attended our events with grace and laughter.

BUSH-FLYING APPRENTICE URANIUM CITY YOUTH LEARNING THE TRADE

A northern Saskatchewan 13-year-old is getting a head start on flight train- ing. Ben McIntyre School student Zan- der Adam is being mentored by local pilot Jim Pfaffenroth in the small hamlet of Uranium City, just under 50 kilome- tres south of the Northwest Territories. Pfaffenroth, who together with his wife have been local residents since 1995, holds a TC PPL and an FAA ATP licence. He often takes Adam flying in his Cessna 180 to nearby villages and is impressed with his flying abilities. The grade-seven student has already absorbed a great deal of aviation knowledge thanks to the publications Pfaffenroth gives him, such as IA Ps, charts, and Flight Supplements, all of which has allowed young Adam to learn aviation terminology, symbols and regulations. Adam also flies a com- puter simulator and is learning about
