The ladies DID IT! Captain Denise did a perfect fly-by and landed at 12:47H EST in Fryeburg, Maine. The last leg was uneventful as the team was happy to leave the inclement weather behind. As an aside just after the team left Penn Yan - pop up storms once again started to form. More news and pictures to follow from the terminus as they come in. CONGRATULATIIONS TEAM #23 - The Purple Hearts. Your friends, fans, and family are very proud to welcome you back to New England.

Hooray! Denise! Or hooray for the other name by which I sometimes think of you as Amelia Earhart. The daring end talented aviatrix from Avon. I'm impressed! So much so I might invite myself for a flight with you which I now recognize would end with a soft Landing. Albert
