🤔 Would you do it?

Imagine it's 1910. Airplanes are brand new. Safety standards are practically nonexistent. Someone asks if you'd like to climb into a homemade aircraft and fly it solo.

👍 = Absolutely!
😮 = Maybe...
😅 = Not a chance!

One woman said YES.

On September 16, 1910, Dr. Bessica Raiche made history as America's first recognized woman aviator, soloing an airplane she helped design and build.

Discover the incredible story of this aviation pioneer during Women in Aviation: Bessica Raiche on Wednesday, June 24 at 5:30 p.m.

This free presentation from Midway Village Museum is part of our America 250 celebration and is open to all ages.

No registration required—just bring your curiosity and prepare to be inspired by one of America's forgotten trailblazers. ✈️
