February 18, 2019
LONGVIEW, TX (KLTV) - LeTourneau University is once again taking to the skies for the Air Race Classic. The women's race has been going since 1929. The team needs a little financial assistance for racing expenses.
Cecilia Kim, Laura Laster and team captain Erica Swenson are all pilots, and are pretty excited about the 2,400 mile Air Race Classic.
"It is a big deal for women to get to do this air race because it's something that we get to show that we are part of aviation just as much as anybody else," Swenson said.
