About This Item
Chicago Review Press, 1997. Hardcover. Like New/Very Good. 6x1x9. Signed by Author. Inscribed "To Toni! Patty Wagstaff". An autobiography of the first woman to win the US Aerobatic Championship, detailing her many adventures before her career as a pilot and her rise in professional aerobatics and stunt flying. In 1997, Wagstaff received her first Hall of Fame inductions, becoming inducted into both the Arizona Aviation Hall of Fame and the International Women's Aviation Hall of Fame. She was awarded the National Aeronautic Association Paul Tissandier Diploma in 1997 and won the Bill Barber Award for sportsmanship in 1998. In 2001, Wagstaff began training pilots of the Kenya Wildlife Service in Kenya. In 2002, she won the Katherine and Marjorie Stinson Award, and in 2004, was elected into what is arguably aviation's most prestigious hall, the National Aviation Hall of Fame. In December 2006, she was inducted into the International Council of Air Shows Foundation Hall of Fame and in 2007, the International Air and Space Hall of Fame at the San Diego Air and Space Museum.
