Our Latest Adventure

Paisley the Pilot and the Sky High Day

Paisley the Pilot and the Sky High Day follows Paisley, a fearless young girl with big dreams of flying. When she enters a paper airplane contest at the aviation museum, she’s determined to win the grand prize, a ride in a B29 Superfortress, but not everyone believes she can. As she learns about the science of flight and the technology behind aviation, Paisley discovers that pilots need bravery, skill, and problem-solving, just like engineers and innovators. With the support of her AbuelaAbuelo, and a new friend, find out if Paisley can use her knowledge and determination to soar past the competition and prove she was born to fly!
