This delightful image captures the essence of Amelia smiling on two spirited young girls with dreams of taking flight in their homemade aircraft. Above Amelia's birthplace home, on the warm Kansas wind, you'll catch a glimpse of her three most notable planes — the orange Friendship, red Lockheed Vega, and fateful Lockheed Electra. Look closely and you'll find Amelia's first plane, the bright yellow Kinner Canary. Avid Amelia history buffs will be able to identify significant letters and numbers in the famous aviatrix's life and career — such as her birthdate, year of "Give Wings to Your Dreams" her disappearance, the 99s, and her plane's identification numbers.

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!

  • 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.

    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.
