Girl Makes Solo Flight Safely
LITTLE ROCK AP Miss Norma Stetla safely back at Ghirlsdale after a harrowing weekend cross country solo flight in Arkansas. The 16 year old high school junior, making her second such flight, failed to see the Mississippi River and tried vainly to find Little Rock. A commercial pilot en route to St. Louis heard her distress call and, aided by two Conway residents, guided her to a safe landing at Searcy. Less than a gallon of fuel remained in her plane. She said it was a good experience and won’t deter her from flying. Ed Young accompanied her back to Clarksdale, owner of the plane.
