Default Amazing 2-33A Records TN

Sarah Kelly-Arnold and Rachel Flem had an amazing flight in a lowly
2-33A on Thursday. It appears they may have set 12 new TN records and
3 national records with this flight.
I think Sarah deserves more of a medal for sitting in the back seat of
the 2-33 for the four hours plus.. Anyway, congratulations to Sarah
and Rachel! Goes to prove that it does
not take high dollar equipment to to have fun and set local records.
Sports Class is alive and well!
