Into the Wind, Above the Clouds: Love at First Flight

Flying above the clouds provided a new and larger prespective of life for DIANE BALLWEG, and it also opened an inner door of personal possibilities.  An advocate of lifelong learning, Diane secretly took flying lessons for two years, surprising family and friends when she became a pilot.  She has flown to six continents, navigated remote airstrips, and retraced the flight path of Japanese fighter pilots on their approach to Pearl Harbor. Her love of flying inspired her to establish and teach an aviation class at Edgewood High School.  On August 13, she will talk about her experiences that have culminated into a book titled, "Into the Wind, Above the Clouds: Love at First Flight."
