Carolyn the Conqueror
Carolyn Shaffer, Pilot for a Day participant, stands in front of a UH-1N Huey helicopter at Joint Base Andrews, Md., April 28, 2017. To honor and highlight Shaffer’s battle against cancer, JBA teamed up with the Check-6 Foundation, a local non-profit, to make her Pilot for a Day. As part of the program, Shaffer donned a personalized flight suit and flew a UH-1N Iroquois simulator, toured multiple aircraft including an F-16 Fighting Falcon and KC-135 Stratotanker, and participated in a variety of base demonstrations.
