Achsa
Description:
On her way home from school one day in 1923, young Achsa Barnwell saw two Jenny (JN4D)aircraft in a vacant lot. Having never seen an airplane before, she stopped for a closer look and, when asked if she would like a ride, didn't even hesitate. They did loops and rolls in the little open-cockpit biplane, and right there and then Achsa's life-long love of flying began. In a book that reads like a fascinating novel, Achsa takes the reader through her flying adventures, her marriages, and her love of sailing. A true pioneer, she taught flying, owned two airlines and a number of historic aircraft, and has seen aviation progress from what was considered an exotic mode of travel to the high-tech and essential presence it is today.
