"A GREAT read" according to Carole Leigh. A fast paced biography; reads like a "Who Dun-it" thriller. What a pioneer and how much she accomplished in one life. The issues of behind the scenes maintenance for commercial aircraft is of a very real concern!. Farce Are you kidding? A reviewer is attempting to disguise herself as independent. She is really the "protagonist" and convinced someone else to write this to "tell her own story". This book and the review are a disgrace to non-fiction.. Donald E. Tebbs said A Tribute to Women and Others Who Must Endure the Abuses of Prejudice and Discrimination. On Wings of Trust is a story of a woman who is able to overcome entrapments, deceptions, and insidious and inequitable barriers in order to reach her full potential in what has been previously considered a "man's world." The story of her pursuit ilicits strong emotion from fear and anger to relief and jubilation.The book is a well written career biography that causes the reader to eagerly turn each page in search of more. It also serves as a great source of encouragement for anyone who desires, perhaps against all odds, to pursue a life goal and consequently the fulfillment of her or his potential or dreams.This review is written by a male
