Hi, This is Capt. Bob Oehl. I am training Christy Smith and Susan King in the DiamonStar DA-40XL for the Air Race Classic. The Pilots are flying at Keystone Heights, FL (42J) airport in training for this race. This airplane is fantastic! What a delight to fly, which is why we are raffling one off at www.wingsofdreams.org. to fundraise for our aviation museum building.
We have two more practice days before the airplane leaves for denver. You can track it on Flightaware.com; the registration number is N638DS. Thanks for your support and helping the public know more about the WASP of WWII.

Air Race Classic 2009 Route
Our Mission
In recognition of the Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP) of World War II and in celebration of 80 years of women's transcontinental air racing, Wings of Dreams, a charitable 501(c)(3) organization, is entering a team to compete in the 2009 Air Race Classic, the longest all-women air race in the world, on June 23-26 2009.
WASP Bernice "Bee" Falk Haydu, a lifelong pilot who has logged more than 3000 hours of flight time and a veteran of four air races, including two "Powder Puff Derbies", has joined the team! Bee is an inspiring force and role model as Christy Smith and Susan King prepare for this 2700-mile epic flight as a tribute to the WASP for their pioneering spirit, service and sacrifice during World War II.
