The Princess and the Plane

She was not a pilot herself, but she owned it to Haviland and became an avid passenger, riding along on several high profile air races, often with her friend, the flying gypsy captain Leslie Hamilton, and was also one of few women to fly across the English Channel. She enthusiastically financed Hamilton's attempt to be the first to fly from England to Canada

Kim, what a crazy story. I mean, she was definitely all about the adventure, and I guess she got adventure, but, man, wild, wild to think about that. Thanks for sharing. I would have never known that, but terrifying to think about how that, you know, those moments would have gone. But anyway, life goes on. Thanks for sharing
