Rv Flygirl

A Late Blooming Flygirl

Marcy Lange had spent her life as a homemaker and mother when her life took a turn: She got divorced, started a photography business and began taking aerial photos for local businesses. After her divorce, she went to a singles weekend at a ski resort and that weekend she met Hank. Hank was a pilot and airport bum who always dreamed of flying. Years later they were married. She didnt know anything about airplanes, but soon learned how to read maps and understand the instruments. After flying with her pilot husband for more than a decade, she took an intro ground school course then went for an intro flight. That intro flight had her sitting in front of the instructor pilot in a tandem seat airplane. It was that flight that hooked her into becoming a pilot. She was soon flying her tiny airplane over the Columbia Gorge, which separates Washington and Oregon, hoping that nothing went wrong. Later, she took a flight over the north face of a snowcapped and picturesque Mount St. Helens. The terrain might be beautiful, but the sky can turn scary when you join the author as she looks back on the adventures of an RV Flygirl.
