Building on our past to make the most of the present, and looking forward to our dynamic future, Purdue University and West Lafayette continue to lead the way and set the standard high. City History... Site of the Battle of Tippecanoe in 1811, the Lafayette area (named for Marquis de Lafayette, the French hero of the Revolutionary War) was officially established by William Digby in 1826. In August of 1859, Lafayette became the site for the first official air mail flight by the United States Postal Service, and its rich aviation history continues today. Lafayette continued to grow as a manufacturing and transportation center, and in 1869, Purdue University was founded. The school has played an important part in the development of the Lafayette - West Lafayette area. Today, Lafayette has developed as a diversified community, with manufacturing, merchandising, education, and transportation all contributing to its growth and expansion. Separated only by the Wabash River, West Lafayette and Lafayette citizens continue to share the many attractions of the two towns. These include social organizations, arts and cultural groups, churches, and museums. The Indiana Chamber of Commerce recently designated Lafayette - West Lafayette as their "Community of the Year". West Lafayette has also received several Tree City U.S.A, awards and a Main Street Award for the development of Wabash Landing. Purdue’s Impact on Aviation... Purdue has been home to pioneers in many different fields, especially aviation and engineering. Amelia Earhart was once an academic advisor here, and Earhart Residence Hall now bears her name. Purdue is also known as a “Cradle of Astronauts”, educating 23 former and current astronauts - nearly one for every three NASA missions flown to date. Not only has Purdue had a rich history, but we continue to forge ahead into the future, on the cutting edge of many new technologies. Our aviation technology department has facilities unmatched by any other collegiate flight school in the country. Flight students receive extensive training in our modem fleet of Piper training aircraft, two B200 Super King Airs, a Beechjet 400A, and a Boeing 727, Level C flight simulator. Aeronautical Technology students learn in jet turbine and turboprop engine test cells, and advanced powerplant, electronics, and composite laboratories. Purdue History... Purdue University, a land grant college created under the Morrill Act of 1862, opened for classes in September 1874 with 6 faculty, 39 students, a 100-acre farm, and five buildings. Named in honor of John Purdue, due to his generous financial contributions, the university was originally established for education in agriculture and the mechanical arts. Now home to over 38,000 students, Purdue continues to be recognized around the world for its outstanding education and research, especially in the fields of technology and engineering. This is Boilermaker Country... In 1889, two newly hired Purdue football coaches were quite discouraged by the scrawny volunteers that turned out for the team. Not to be outdone by anyone, the coaches hired several husky boilermakers from Monon Railroad shops and a few burly policemen. After enrolling these men in one University course, they set about playing football, resulting in victory after victory. When the team beat Wabash College, the Crawfordsville newspapers wrote several derogatory articles calling the Purdue team just a bunch of "boilermakers", “haymakers”, and “corn sailors”. The first name struck the fancy of the students, who have been proud to be known as the Boilermakers ever since. From the World’s Largest Drum (pictured below) to the world’s largest official mascot (The Boilermaker Special, a street-legal “train”), everything is bigger and better at Purdue. 6 Students Leading the Way Into the Future... The 2005 race marks the twelfth year that Purdue has sent an all-student team to compete in the Air Race Classic. The 2002 and 2003 Purdue team, Keri Wiznerowicz and Heidi Moore, dreamt of hosting the race at Purdue, and this year, that dream is finally becoming a reality. Building on the incredible resources available at a large university, the 2005 planning committee has worked exceptionally hard to make this year’s race one to remember. Over 55 students in various majors, from flight to communications to engineering are involved on the planning committees. This project has given these students priceless real-world, hands-on experience. These unparalleled opportunities allow students to put their great ideas into action and hone their skills for future careers. ARC 2005 Committee Heads (L to R, front to back): Stefanie Gates, Hospitality, Katherine Conrad, Scoring & Timing; Elisabeth Halsmer, Social Events and Banquets; Kirsten Korkus, Program Advertising; Libby Woelfert, Public Relations; Kim Conrad, Airport Operations; Mike Kenney, Airport Operations; Dustin Wilcox, Webmaster/Graphics Media; Sarah Andersen, Social Events and Banquets; John Schumacher, Airport Operations; Kevin Gaul, Transportation; Keri Wiznerowicz, Coordinator and Start/Terminus Chair. Keri Wiznerowicz (left), this year’s Start and Terminus Chairman, completed a B.S. in Aviation Technology: Flight in May 2004 at Purdue, and is now pursuing a Masters Degree here. She has done a phenomenal job overseeing every aspect of the planning since day one, now almost three years ago. She is the heart and soul of this year's race, and we all thank her for her endless hours of hard work and dedication! Hospitality Committee The Airport Operations Tri-fecta Committee Head Planning Meeting WAI Conference, March 2005 7 La Crosse The game lives on. The La Crosse area, appropriately named "God's Country”, for its unspoiled scenic beauty, rivals the most popular scenic attractions anywhere in the United States. Located in the “drifts area”, La Crosse is part of a large geological oddity in that this area, encompassing southwest Wisconsin and part of Iowa, was untouched by glaciers. The area’s bluffs, coulees, woods, and streams are as old and unchanged as Mother Nature herself. Explore the rich history of this city that Mark Twain himself called a "choice town.” This is a city where fur traders and Indians met, that played host to Buffalo Bill's Wild West Shows, once populated by lumberjacks, riverboat pilots, and beer brewers, and at one time welcomed up to 300 steamboats every month to its docks. The sunken ship "War Eagle" still lies at the bottom of the river near the shore of Riverside Park as a reminder of the era. In 1680, a group of Frenchmen, under the leadership of Father Louis Hennepin, were the first Europeans to view the site of this convergence and what would become known as La Crosse. Permanent settlement of the area actually began in 1841 when Nathan Myrick first built a cabin on Barrons Island, now the site of Pettibone Park, and began carrying on trade with the Winnebago Indians. In 1842, Myrick moved to the mainland and laid out the village of La Crosse. The name 'la crosse" (of French origin) remained after traders in the late 1700's saw Indians playing a ball game on the wide prairies. The game was played with long handled racquets and was very similar to the game of lacrosse, which is still played today. When Nathan Myrick moved to the mainland, he laid the first tracts for the village of 745 people. The village became a city in 1856. It was during this period of time that the once burgeoning commerce on the Mississippi River began to dwindle, as the building of bridges and railroads made transporting goods by water less economically feasible. The Chippewa Lumber Boom Company, former name of the Weyerhaeuser Company, was the area’s major employer in the 19th Century. As local forests declined, La Crosse became known for its beer. Five breweries acted as catalysts for the economic expansion of the city as the 20th century began. Today, there is but one remaining in existence, the City Brewery, which still plays a major role in the continued prosperity of the La Crosse area. Elaine Morrow, Stop Chair Glen Morrow, Head Timer La Crosse residents and visitors alike enjoy several large festivals each year. The Deke Slayton Airfest (pictured left) is held at the La Crosse Municipal Airport. This show provides NASA exhibits, astronaut appearances, military aircraft displays, major air show acts, aerobatic teams, fireworks, food, and a hangar dance. Riverfest, held in Riverside Park along the Mississippi River, includes fireworks, a food fair, beverage tents, crafts, music, song, and dance. Applefest provides orchard tours, live musical entertainment, carnival rides, golf tournament, food, arts & crafts, flea market, and a Sunday parade. Oktoberfest, a family oriented festival, includes The Grand Maple Leaf Parade and evening Torchlight Parade. During the Holiday Lights Spectacular, approximately 800 thousand lights illuminate La Crosse's Riverside Park and there are appearances by Santa Claus and live reindeer. La Crosse is home to Wisconsin’s Cranberry Discovery Center which showcases Wisconsin’s leading crop, as well as the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, Western Wisconsin Technical College, Viterbo University, and a nationally recognized school for autistic children, Chileda. Today, La Crosse’s 50,000-plus inhabitants are engaged in a wide variety of commercial enterprises. Another 100,000 people living in the greater La Crosse area simply add to the myriad of possibilities for work or play. Check out La Crosse, Wisconsin - we are full of surprises! 8 Beatrice Small town charm is home to stay. Beatrice, Nebraska is a place of rich history and small town charm. Gage County is where America’s homestead story begins. In the 19th century, America was on the move, and everyone was heading west. More than 300,000 pioneers traveled the Oregon trail, which passed right through our area. One of the first claims recorded after the Homestead Act of 1862 became law is preserved at the Homestead National Monument of America, which is located only 4 miles west of Beatrice. Front, L to R: Sue Askew, Susan Biba, Mandy Abbott (& daughter Rachel) Back, L to R: Diane Bartels, Patsy Meyer, Carole Sutton, Bobbie Harders Nebraska 99s Forty minutes south of Lincoln, Beatrice is a town where you can enjoy festivals and celebrations all year long that emphasize our heritage. Various Gage County towns are sites for some of these events, which draw people from all over the country. The Homestead National Monument of America sponsors the annual Monumental Fiddling Championship over Memorial Day, where fiddlers play songs from the homesteading era; and the Night of the Great Pumpkin, held on Halloween. Homestead Days, held during the five days leading up to Father’s Day, is Gage County’s largest festival. A parade, car show, kids’ activities and free entertainment make this celebration of history a crowd pleaser year in and year out. From January’s Twelfth Night Celebration, which focuses on Welsh Holiday traditions, to December’s Winter Light Festival, featuring thousands of lights on the 100-year-old Gage County Courthouse, there are many reasons to visit Beatrice throughout the year. Diana Smith Airport Manager Although we revere history with celebrations, preservation of our downtown, and the Gage County Museum, our new library, water park, and numerous city parks show we are moving forward into the future.

In Bartlesville, Oklahoma, the town that oil built, you can see roaming herds of exotic animals on an oil baron's vast ranch, explore Frank Lloyd Wright’s only skyscraper, shop for unique treasures, and experience the art, culture, and history of the American West. Back in 1870, when northeast Oklahoma was home to the Osage, Cherokee, and Delaware, an Indian trader named Nelson Carr opened a trading post on the north side of the Caney River. In 1873, Jacob Barties bought the post from Carr and expanded it into a flourmill and eventually a general store and home for his family. William Johnstone and George Keeler also came to the area in the early 1870’s. After working for Barties, the two struck out and built a store on the south side of the river. Within a few years the area around the Johnstone-Keeler store had grown to include other businesses and dwellings. It was Keeler who found another key to Bartlesville’s future—oil. Keeler had noticed rainbow sheens on the area creeks and believed that there was an untapped oil supply beneath the Caney basin. Keeler was right. On April 15, 1897, the first commercial oil well in what is now the state of Oklahoma—the Nellie Johnstone No. 1—blew in as a gusher. Attracted by the oil boom, brothers Frank and L.E. Phillips, came to Bartlesville in 1904, and the two founded Phillips Petroleum Company in 1917. It grew to become Bartlesville’s largest employer and one of the nation’s top oil companies. With a balanced mix of natural resources and abundant space, Bartlesville has grown to be the home of more than 34,000 people as well as industrial giants ConocoPhillips, Schlumberger REDA Production Systems, and Zinc Corporation of America. The economic foundations of Bartlesville area business have always been natural gas, oil, agriculture and ranching. Bartlesville is proud of the many attractions and assets that continue the legend of exploration and innovation, including museums, dramatic architecture, art collections, scenic prairie life and world-renowned events. Each year citizens and visitors enjoy the diversity and entertainment of the Bartlesville Sympathy Orchestra, Civic Ballet, Choral Society, Community Concert Association, Theater Bartlesville, and Children’s Musical Theatre. Music is no stranger to Bartlesville, as the OK MOZART Festival brings internationally recognized musicians and artists to the area every year, along with spectators and media attention from ail over the world. The National Biplane Association has held their Biplane Expo here for over a dozen years, and the annual SunFest arts and crafts festival draws thousands of people to Sooner Park for family-oriented exhibits, music, arts and crafts. Since its early days in Indian Territory, Bartlesville’s history has been told by the architecture and attractions still flourishing today. The Dewey Hotel, a Victorian structure built in 1900, was the first frame building in Dewey. The Frank Phillips Home, built in 1909 as the 26-room mansion of Bartlesville pioneer Frank Phillips, still houses the family’s original furnishings and art collections. The beautiful La Quinta Foster Mansion, built in 1932 with terra cotta floors and hand-painted ceilings, is now part of Oklahoma Wesleyan University, a 4-year liberal arts university. The Price Tower, completed in 1956, was designed and constructed by noted architect Frank Lloyd Wright for the H.C. Price International Pipeline Company. The Tower now houses the Price Tower Arts Center, where visitors can see exhibits on art, architecture, history, and science. Woolaroc is another of the area’s top attractions, boasting a 3,700 acre wildlife preserve, the Native American Heritage Center, nature trails, and the historic Frank Phillips Lodge. Other attractions in the area include the Bartlesville Community Center, designed by the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation; the frontier town museum at Prairie Song; Indian Territory; Keepsake Candle Factory and Country Store; Red Dirt Soap Company; and a beautiful 11-mile jogging and biking trail known as Pathfinder Parkway. From its frontier trade and petroleum beginnings to its present diversity of manufacturing, research, and ranching, the Bartlesville area presents a unique blend of cosmopolitan attitude mixed with ARC Planning Committee neighborhood friendliness. 10 Shreveport The home of Southern hospitality. Shreveport, Louisiana, was founded in 1836 by the Shreve Town Company, after Captain Henry Miller Shreve, commander of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, cleared the Red River of a 180-mile-long raft of debris that had clogged its channel. Front, L to R: Billie Garcia, Lisa Garrett, MaryJo Voss. Back, L to R: Dot Lindsey, Jerry Saur, Rachel Buchanan, Evelyn Snow, Sandra Presley, Mary Earns, Marian Piper. Shreveport 99s Since 1838, Shreveport has been the parish seat of Caddo Parish. The town, contained within a parcel of land sold by the indigenous Caddo Indians to the Shreve Town Company, was at the juncture of the Red River and the Texas Trail, an overland route into the newly independent Republic of Texas. The Red River remained navigable until 1914, when the railroad became the preferred means of transporting goods and people. Shreveport’s original town of 64 city blocks is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and is an integral part of the region's center of telecommunications, technology, banking, law, government, riverboat gaming, and the arts. Shreveport, and its smaller sister city, Bossier City (founded in 1884) have six historic districts and many landmarks listed on the National Register. An example, McNeill Street Pumping Station, is an 1887 waterworks that is still in use, and is the only example of its type in the nation. Another landmark on the National register is Barksdale Air Force Base, opened in 1933 as Barksdale Army Air Field. Shreveport's first municipal airport, Downtown Airport, was dedicated in July, 1931. For more than ten years, Downtown Airport was simply an open field with a windsock located in the middle. Lisa Cotham Stop Chair Not pictured: George Carroll, Head Timer; Martin McCoy, Timer; J.D. Alexander, Timer; Floyd Lindsey, Timer Adjacent to Barksdale Army Air Field in Bossier City is the Downtown Airport. Currently, a pilot training school run by Louisiana Tech University and a Southern University Airframe and Powerplant mechanics school anchor activity at the airport. Shreveport and Bossier City truly define southern hospitality. From Louisiana Downs, one of the nation's largest thoroughbred racetracks, to the American Rose Center, North America's largest park dedicated to the rose, three dockside riverboat casinos, cultural activities, festivals, and unique cuisine, Shreveport- Bossier offers oodles of choices to delight you. I I Walnut Ridge History, heritage, and natural beauty. We may be little, but we're proud. Walnut Ridge is close to several big cities, which keeps us from wishing we were bigger. The town of Walnut Ridge, located in Lawrence County, Arkansas, boasts a mighty population of 4,925. Centrally located, this small town is about 82 miles from Memphis and just under 120 miles from Little Rock. Back in 1867, Colonel W. M. Ponder came from Missouri and located at Old Walnut Ridge so he could farm and run a saw mill. It is said the Iron Mountain Railroad Company agreed to locate a depot on his land. He, along with two others, cleared the site to make room for the structure. Shortly thereafter, Col. Ponder built and moved into the railroad depot. The original building still exists, now part of a larger one that became his home. S. C. Dowell - the county agent for property owned by the railroad - had extensive real estate holdings of his own, and introduced rice to the area as an agricultural product, encouraging the economic growth of Walnut Ridge and the Eastern district of Arkansas. Jan Serfass We invite you to experience and celebrate Arkansas's place in the fabric of America. Stop Chair Arkansas's widely varied landscapes are home to a rich history. A trip across the state can lead from Mississippi River bottoms to mid-America's most prominent peaks; from a legacy of Deep South cotton culture to a town on a Wild West frontier. Among the stories told along the way are tales of Native Americans, pioneers who built the state, Civil War battles, an oil boom, blues and mountain folk music, diamonds, nine students who helped forge the spirit of the civil rights movement, and a native son who rose to the U.S. Presidency. Walnut Ridge is home to beautiful state parks, such as the Powhatan Historic State Park. Restored in 1970 to the architect's original plans, the Powhatan Courthouse is this park's dominant feature. The building includes exhibits that interpret the commerce, politics and lifestyles that shaped north Arkansas, and illustrate the history of Lawrence County, from its beginning to the early years of the 20th century. The courthouse, which houses some of the oldest records in Arkansas, also serves as a regional archive. Nestled in the forested hills on the shore of Lake Frierson, the Lake Frierson State Park is known for its year-round fishing and springtime blaze of wild dogwoods. Crowley’s Ridge State Park occupies the former homestead of Benjamin Crowley, whose family first settled this area. Native log and stone structures constructed by the Civilian Conservation Corps in the 1930s set the mood for this park's rustic warmth. Kris Irvin Timer Camelia Smith Timer Courthouse in nearby Powhatan While Walnut Ridge is a small town, we are not small Historic State Park on friendliness, history, or heritage. We hope you enjoy your time with us in our comer of the country, and that you’ll come back again soon. Pat Ditsch Timer 12 Tullahoma Everything from railroads to rockets. In the early 1800s, a small group of Mississippi townspeople migrated north to Tennessee. They settled in an area near the Cumberland Mountains where there was a plentiful water supply including therapeutic mineral springs. They decided to name this new town after the former Mississippi hometown that was at one time called Tullahoma - the Indian word meaning “red earth.” The settlement of Tullahoma began as a railroad camp during construction of the Nashville, Chattanooga, & St. Louis Railway, and was chartered as a city in 1852. Since its charter, Tullahoma has been a health resort, a steadily growing industrial center, and a produce farming area, as well as the site of a large infantry training center, Camp Forrest, during World War II. Shortly after WWII, in 1951, the Arnold Engineering Development Center, opened its doors. It is the world’s largest aeronautical research testing center, and has brought thousands of new residents, including scientists, engineers, skilled technicians and all their families to the area. The University of Tennessee Space Institute, Motlow State Community College, Hands on Science Center, Staggerwing Museum, and the Fine Arts Center educate and enrich the population. Tullahoma’s central location has fostered its growth into a thriving regional, commercial, shopping, and medical hub. A quality school system, progressive city government, safe and peaceful neighborhoods, low cost of living, and abundant recreational activities are all part of this city. Tullahoma Regional Airport has played a large part in all of the area’s growth. We have two paved and two sod runways. Runway 6/24 may still be under construction at the time of the race, due to a $2 million project, including a 500 ft. runway extension, lights, and overlay. Tullahoma Aviation, the FBO on the field, offers fuel, hangars, tie-downs, instruction, maintenance, and courtesy cars.

PERSONNEL Bonnie Blem-Geddes Stop Chair James Holbert Airport Manager Juan Merkt, PhD. Department of Aviation Chair Welcome to Athens, Ohio, home of Ohio University. From 1786, when eleven distinguished men met at a tavern in Boston, Massachusetts to organize the Ohio Company, the growth of the City of Athens and Ohio University were bound together. These men, who would purchase 750,000 acres of land lying north and west of the Ohio River, believed education was as important to development as the strong river that attracted them here. Their action resulted in the Ordinance of 1787, which included the provision that “schools and the means of education shall forever be encouraged.” The company set aside two townships, Athens and Alexander, which each contributed a small tax of “college rent” for the support of a university to be located on the Hocking River. Ohio University was established in 1804, a year after Ohio achieved statehood. The first students began studies in 1808 with one building and one professor. Today, Ohio University boasts over 19,000 students at its main campus in Athens. With students from every state in the nation and about 100 other countries, Ohio University offers undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral degrees, as well as a four-year program in osteopathic medicine. The Ohio University Airport was named in honor of Gordon K. Bush, a pioneer in Athens aviation, who served six-terms as a member of the board of trustees of Ohio University and was publisher of the Athens Messenger. The Fritz J. and Dolores H. Russ College of Engineering and Technology educates well-rounded professionals with both technical and team-project skills. Enrolling approximately 1,400 undergraduate students and almost 300 graduate students, the Russ College offers undergraduate and graduate degrees across the traditional engineering spectrum and in technology disciplines such as aviation, computer science, and industrial technology. Russ College's facilities include the Francis J. Fuller Aviation Training Center and Avionics Engineering Center, the only avionics facility of its kind in the United States. The Avionics Engineering Center specializes in the research, development, and evaluation of electronic navigation, communication, and surveillance systems. The center, the largest at Ohio University, was established in 1963 to support a unique combination of theoreticians and technical specialists to address navigation issues encountered in air transportation and furnish immediate, practical solutions. Athens is a 'rural-cosmopolitan' community attracting people from all over the world to our former coal mining community. We have big-city amenities wrapped in small-town hospitality, nestled in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains. Recreational opportunities abound in our national forest, state parks, and 17-mile paved recreation path that connects the cities of Athens and Nelsonville. Athens, home of Ohio University, is a great place to visit and an even better place to live! 14 Frankfort Planes, Trains, and Automobiles Richard Langston, Chair, Frankfort Airport Authority Settlers started arriving in the Clinton County area during the late 1820's. Along with a large German immigrant population, settlers arrived from points across Europe. The flat landscape and rich soil attracted those who chose farming as their profession. Along with the agricultural enterprises were supporting businesses such as tanners, wagon makers, and general supplies merchants. Clinton County was formed in May of 1830. This farming community flourished when a railroad was erected In the 1870's. Numerous train lines came in and out of the area, bringing prosperity and new residents to the county. Historically a small agricultural community, Clinton County experienced an industrial development boom beginning in the early 1900’s, when the Frankfort Industrial Association, the forerunner of the Clinton County Chamber, attracted several manufacturers to the area companies provided residents with hundreds of career opportunities, and brought recognition to Frankfort. Since this time, commercial and industrial development has continues steadily and the area continues to prosper. Today, along with its strong agricultural community, Clinton County is home to some of the world's largest industries. With all the attractions offered, you’re sure to enjoy your visit to Frankfort. Those who enjoy the performing arts will appreciate the stage productions offered at the Red Barn Summer Theatre and Clinton County Civic Theatre. There are numerous parks in the area, perfect for enjoying the beautiful Indiana weather, and museum-goers should be sure to visit The Painted Lady House and Museum which showcases tum-of-the-century architecture and style. Clinton County is comfortably situated along the Chicago/lndianapolis corridor, and conveniently located near many urban centers. Residents can drive to Indianapolis in well under an hour, and Kokomo and Lafayette can both be reached in less than 35 minutes. Because of this ideal location, nearly 40 trucking carriers haul freight in and out of Clinton County. Frankfort, located near the center of Clinton County, is close to several highway systems that cross the state of Indiana, making it a transportation center for Indiana. Railroads began crossing Clinton County in the 1870's, and today Norfolk Southern, CSX, and Central Railroad of Indianapolis each provide rail service to and from Clinton County. One of the greatest transportation hubs of Clinton County is the Frankfort Municipal Airport, it opened in 1960 and is governed by the Frankfort Airport Authority. This 230-acre facility can accommodate most corporate aircraft, with runways of 2,650 and 5,000 feet. There are two 12-unit hangars, one of which is enclosed. A highlight of the airport is the new Frankfort Flight Service, Inc. building, a top-notch facility for all airport patrons, where a friendly face is sure to welcome you. Frankfort Flight Service, Inc. is the full-service FBO on the field, offering aircraft rental, instruction, charter flights, and the cheapest fuel around. 15 Purdue University / West Lafayette Dr. Dennis Depew, Dean, College of Technology, Official Starter Dr. Mary Sadowski, Associate Dean, College of Technology, ARC 2005 Faculty Advisor Dr. Thomas Carney, Department Head, Aviation Technology Not Pictured: Betty Stansbury, Airport Manager, KLAF Nita Pollock, Air Traffic Control Tower Manager, KLAF Jeff Pittard, President, Lafayette Aviation (FBO) Dan Donahoe, Line Crew Manager, Lafayette Aviation Thanks also to all of the Line Crew and Mechanics at Lafayette Aviation for fueling and servicing all race aircraft!
