When most people turn 50, they figure it’s time to relax and settle into neutral while coasting toward retirement. Not Jacquie B! When Jacquie turned 50, she launched her solo aerobatic career with her one-of-a-kind Pitts Special biplane. During the centennial celebration of powered flight in 2003, Jacquie finally quit the humdrum of a white collar profession and realized her dream as an air show performer, becoming the first female pilot to enter this business at the age of 50.
Climb into the cockpit and take control. As the world’s most successful performance and unlimited category aerobatic aircraft, the EXTRA 300 series remains unrivaled in its class. Its proven performance in international aerobatic competition, combined with its docile handling and dependable stability, translate into a comfortable cross-country touring machine. For pure power, handling and performance nothing comes close.
The EXTRA 300 is a two-seat, tandem arrangement, mid-wing aerobatic monoplane with conventional (taildragger) landing gear, offering exceptional aerobatic performance.

Ever since I was a kid, my dream was to fly. My uncle took note of this when I was 10 years old when he took me to my first air show in Mt. Comfort, Indiana. I continued going for as many years as I could to see the likes of the Blue Angels, Thunderbirds, and daring aerobatic performers. It wasn’t until I was 18 years old that I got to meet one of them for the first time, Jacquie! I was lucky enough to go flying with Jacquie in the front seat of her Extra 300, my favorite aerobatic plane. It was one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had and it kicked off my road to becoming a pilot.
Later that year, I started school at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Aeronautical Science. I started flight training as part of my academics and had the support of Jacquie the whole way through. She mentored and supported me throughout my education and has been an excellent friend as I continued to receive my Private Pilot’s license and Instrument rating. I recently graduated with my degree and am managing a flight school in Daytona Beach.
One thing Jacquie has inspired in me is to give back. I do my best to inspire young men and women to chase their dreams of flying each day. I one day hope to do that from the cockpit of a military jet but it doesn’t take that to be an awesome inspiration as Jacquie has been to me.
The Press Kit is a great tool to get informed about Jacquie's operational requirements, Media and VIP services, General information, plane specs and other details about the show.
