Women in Flight Award


This last week I found out that my friend Vicki Danhof, who is a local pilot, entered our helicoptor ride which we took a month ago into a Centennial of Women in Flight competition. It was myself and Yvonne Siemer as passengers and Vicki as pilot. We won 3rd prize for the most unusual flight. In our flight we flew a pattern along the river, flew very low and herded some Buffalo and did some manuevers.
Considering the women that won ahead of us this is actually quite the achievement.
The following is the website along with a couple pictures which I took that we are featured on. It is kinda exciting and we also received a certificate acknowleging the flight.

That is pretty cool. Sure is a beautiful area to fly over too.
Glad you had the opportunity to go with her.
