On This Day

November 22

South Dakota's first female pilot was born on this day in 1892 in Box Elder. Nellie Zabel Willhite took her first flight Nov. 13, 1927, and earned a living doing air shows, races, giving rides and carrying air mail, working as a commercial pilot until age 52. Willhite was a founding member of the Ninety-Nines, an organization of women aviators. She managed all this without being able to hear — Nellie became deaf at age 2 after a bout with the measles.
