Powder Puff Derby: 145 Women Pilots Start Montana Leg
An armada of 145 planes piloted by women began the second day of the Powder Puff Derby race from Calgary toward Baton Rouge. About 300 women pilots, with a monkey in pants reportedly aboard, left Calgary for Montana with stops at Great Falls and Billings before continuing toward Rapid City and Baton Rouge. Weather delayed some legs as pilots follow a pro rated schedule to reach the final destination by Thursday.
