About this title

Synopsis

Margaret J. Ringenberg's dream took flight in the Women's Flying Training Detachment in 1943. More than 50 years later she is still living her dream. Readers will relate to her "down-to-earth" style as she shares her unique perspective on life as a female aviator. As a World War II ferry pilot, flight instructor, corporate pilot, and air racer, Mrs. Ringenberg has not only made history, set records, and won trophies; she has changed lives. All while doing what she loves-flying.

About the Author

Margaret Ringenberg is an active pilot with more than 40,000 hours of flying time. She holds both single engine and multi-engine ratings. She began air racing in 1957, flying the last twenty Powder Puff Derbies and every Air Race Classic since 1977. In 1994 she fulfilled her dream of flying around the world. She is a native born Hoosier who is proud of the fact that except for her time in the military, she has never lived outside of Allen County, Indiana.

She is featured in Tom Brokaw's book The Greatest Generation and was recently seen on NBC Nightly News.

Jane Roth is a freelance writer from Fort Wayne, Indiana.
