I could have gone with a job in the airlines in the late ‘70s, but I wouldn’t have gotten to do as much flying,” Stauffer said. In sales, Stauffer was able to try all makes and models of planes to enhance her knowledge of the aircraft she was trying to sell. “That’s where I learned to fly everything.”
While Stauffer was busy getting her company off the ground, Ann Shaneyfelt didn’t know what to do with herself. Her children were all grown and the divorced 41-year-old found herself bored.
When she was a little girl growing up in St. George, Kansas, Shaneyfelt’s father allowed his friends to store their planes in their barn “when it wasn’t full of hay,” she said. Her father had been a pilot himself for a while, until either, Shaneyfelt presumes, he had a harrowing flight experience that grounded him or he gave into his wife’s objections to the hobby.
The planes in the barn sat unflown, but not unused. Shaneyfelt, her siblings, and their friends would climb all over the planes, spin the propellers, and pretend to be miles high over Kansas.
“Someday, when I grow up, I’m going to fly one of these,” Shaneyfelt told herself. A marriage right after high school, a moving schedule dictated by her husband’s career, and children at home prevented Shaneyfelt from getting back into a cockpit for decades. But she finally did it.

Shaneyfelt began lessons through the Civil Air Patrol in 1990 and obtained her private license in 1993. (“93” is a portion of her email address even today.) She joined the Northeast Kansas Chapter of the Ninety-Nines in 1995 and has “held every officer position at one point or another.” She still lives in Olathe, Kansas, and while she doesn’t fly much anymore, she refuses to say she’s retired from it.
“It’s like therapy. It really is,” Shaneyfelt said. “Especially in spring, when you start hearing the planes, you think ‘I just gotta get out and fly.’ It’s in your blood. … It’s an addiction, but it’s legal.”
Unlike both Stauffer and Shaneyfelt, Jeanné Willerth can’t recall a life without planes. Her father served in Europe under Gen. George Patton in World War II and claimed a German plane as a spoil of war after Allied victory was declared on May 8, 1945.
He befriended a German engineer who helped him fix it up, and he began flying for fun. When he returned to his wife and life in Omaha, Nebraska, Willerth’s mother decided she, too, would learn to fly as a precautionary measure. She often flew with her husband, and she wanted to be prepared to take over just in case anything ever happened while he was behind the yoke.
Her exercise in caution began a chain reaction of adventures.
