Jessica Cox, alongside EAA Chapter 898, is undertaking an extraordinary project: constructing an RV-10 with adapted foot controls for the pilot side. Jessica’s approach to aviation and her advocacy for people with disabilities continue to inspire us all. This unique modification will allow her to pilot the aircraft using only her feet. Jessica\u2019s collaboration with Chapter 898 is a powerful example of adaptability and determination. Check out the story here.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

Christine Russell, commonly known as the “Plane Lady,” and her husband Tyler have been working on their RV-10 in their garage. At AirVenture, Christine had the opportunity to discuss their build experiences with the FAA. Their dedication to this project highlights the passion and commitment within our homebuilt aircraft community. Check out her interview here.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n
