The first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic; the first person to solo across the Pacific from Honolulu to Oakland; the first person to solo from Burbank to Mexico City; speed records, altitude records, innumerable honors, degrees and accolades...It's difficult to think about Amelia Earhart outside of aviation. However, this world renown pilot was also an accomplished writer, poet, photographer and teacher. She passionately championed women's rights and her words remain true today: "I want to do it because I want to do it".

Three-time national aerobatic champion Patty Wagstaff has probably done more to make aerobatics a household word than any other pilot in history. Breaking the gender barrier, she proved that in aviation, the best pilots are determined by skill and practice, not by gender. In 1991, competing in a field of both men and women, she won the National Aerobatic Championship, the first woman to do so. And to prove that it wasn't just a fluke, she went on to win in 1992 and 1993. After retiring from the rigors of competition, Patty continues to thrill air show audiences with her exciting " " aerobatics air show in her Extra 300. She generously donated her competition airplane, an Extra 260, to the National Air & Space Museum, where it is on permanent display. As a respected member of the aviation community, she serves on boards and advisory panels for museums, regulatory bodies and sport aviation organizations. She has written an autobiography "Fire and Air", and is a frequent contributor to aviation publications as well as a sought-after speaker. Patty's stamina, passion and hard work have truly created a champion.
Betty won the International Feminine
Aerobatic Championships in 1948-1950 in the revolutionary new Pitts Special
biplane while still in her 20's. She learned to fly early, soloing at age
12, and perfected her airshow flying through determination, courage and
perfectionism. Her spunky style drew the admiration of airshow crowds from
coast to coast. She flew numerous airplanes for speed records, including the
P-51 Mustang, and after retiring from aviation, worked with Chevrolet on
development of the Corvette. In addition to setting speed records in the
Corvette, she was active in boat jumping and skydiving. In 1959 she trained
and tested with the original Mercury astronauts, even though women were
eventually dropped from the program. Her Pitt bi-plane, "Little Stinker" is
on display in the National Air and Space Museum in Washington, DC.
