Ride along with APSA Secretary, Dr. Max Langham, and his brother Sam as they embark on an historic flight to raise awareness for the APSA foundation. Their journey this May will retrace parts of the famous Lewis and Clark trail, from the Pacific to the Mississippi, in a newly-refurbished 1943 Boeing-Stearman open biplane.
