Aero-News Quote of the Day

“Our WAI members across the nation are grateful for the service and sacrifice of the formidable group of WASP who served so honorably during World War II. This group of brave and dedicated women risked their lives to do their part for the war effort and paved the way for so many of us to pursue our personal aviation dreams."

In its seventh year, the #HonorTheWASP program was established by WAI to take place (fittingly) over the Memorial Day weekend each year.
