Hi, Kevin. I used to follow my dad everywhere when I was a teenager and he used to fly out of Eustis, FL. I remember meeting Grace probably in the early to mid-70's. She used to keep her plane at a small airport in Plymouth, FL, a short narrow runway that ran right alongside Rt 441, north of Apopka. We used to see her all the time. I can't remember if she had the Cub then or an Aeronca Champ. I think it was the Champ. I remember her telling us the stories of her spins and she would always make her landings over on one wheel when she would come in. I'll have to ask my dad if he remembers her.
