the flying sisters
Rome, GA
twin sisters Elisabeth (right) and France Woods, toss a coin to see whose turn it is to take the plane up.
only 18, both girls have private pilote licenses, and own this 2seater Aeronca Chief monoplane, presented to them by their parents when they graduated from high school.
the girls took lessons at Stephens Air School Columbia MO.
last year this year they attend the university of Georgia and fly in the afternoons.
now that they have made their parents air-minded, the girls are planning to buy a larger, faster ship and start at school of instruction after the war.
