STEM
The Purdue Air Race Team consists of two groups: the ground crew and the racers.The ground crew is an essential part of the Team. These students are the ones that analyze weather patterns, winds, forecasts, front locations, pressure systems, density altitude, and hazardous weather in order to give the racers the best possible (and fastest) route for the race. They also calculate fuel burn, climb and descent information, and whether to fly the next leg or to wait for better weather. The racers are two women students that fly the race across the country. The co-pilot becomes the captain for the next race so there is always some experience on the team. They fly in numerous locations across the country and it is a great opportunity to build time, gain new experience, and race against a hundred other female pilots from around the country!Overall, this is a hard working group of students that just love aviation.
