Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

WHAT ARE WE DOING?

Tess and Morag aim to fly through all 48 contiguous US States in the fastest time possible!  We have hired a Cessna 150 light aircraft and will be flying 10,000 nautical miles, 7 hours a day, for 3 weeks.  We will be camping along the way - a nod to the British Army.

WHY ARE WE DOING IT?

Wings for Warriors is a charity that fully funds wounded and injured ex service personnel to train as professional pilots.  We aim to raise as much money as possible to allow even more veterans to achieve a sustainable career after life in the Armed Forces.

Visit their website at: www.wings4warriors.org.uk to learn more.
