As I stand grounded by the weather in Vancouver on this last day of the record week, I reflect back on the flights that I was able to take in Paris and in Los Angeles. I can still hear my ladies passengers in Los Angeles yesterday express their wonder over the headsets. "Oh, it is so pretty!". What a frill for me to have the skills to add this new dimension to their lives.

And I am not alone. As I read the first reports and watch the first photos you sent, I can see the big smiles on every faces, passengers and pilots. The
overwhelming written feedback is about fun and a feeling of accomplishment. Many mothers used this challenge to take their own daughters flying for the first time.

My mother sparked my interest in flying simply by talking about it. Imagine how many women and girls might be inspired by the stories your passengers will tell. Congratulations on choosing to make a difference. Job well done.
