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.
