She went on to raise a family of 5 during the 50’s and 60’s (5 kids in 5 years) and became a statistical researcher with the American Cancer Society.Elizabeth 'Betty' Wall flew an F-16 at age 71 and first piloted at B-17 at age 82! And she is still going strong at 83. This is the story of her life that so far spans nearly a century: from the 'Roaring Twenties' and the 'Great Depression' through WWII, the 60’s and 70’s to the present day.Wall is a member of the Minnesota Aviation Hall of Fame and received the Immortal Chaplain’s Humanitarian Award representing all Women Service Volunteers of WWII.
