SPEAKER: Captain Heidi Porch

Heidi is a retired Delta Air Lines Pilot with a career spanning 35 years. Her wings were truly earned the hard way! She’s flown everything from DC-9s to Airbus jets to the iconic Boeing 747-400 and everything in between. In her recent book “Ditching the Sky,” she recounts her early experience with a pilot’s worst fear: losing her engine, 540 miles from land, surrounded by the endless Pacific Ocean! 

Heidi’s exciting water landing, surviving nine hours at night in a tiny raft amidst 10-feet swells, and eventual rescue is a gripping and often funny story. She’ll share details of this experience and other adventures chasing up flight time and working her way up the ranks the scrappy way!

Heidi will have copies of her book “Ditching the Sky: A Memoir of Triumph Against All Odds” for sale at the meeting so you can read her amazing story.

Please join us for what’s sure to be a memorable evening!
