Celebrity Lecture Series: The Two "Jackies"

Jacqueline Cochran, Jacqueline Auriol - The World's First Supersonic Women

The two Jacquie's, Cochran and Auriol, were always competing to set new records and doing so very successfully. The seesaw competition for these two women to set new aviation records led them to accomplish truly extraordinary things. Ultimately, they both achieved the rare goal of exceeding the speed of sound when this feat had been accomplished by very few.

Join us to hear aviation history expert, Lynn Jenson, who will describe for us the lives and achievements of these two remarkable women.

For details, see the Western Museum of Flight Event.
