2022 Stamp Honouree Anna Pangrazzi
Like many, teenager Anna Pangrazzi had no planned career until her math teacher offered an unusual elective, the private pilot ground school. When completed, he offered students the chance to write the government exam. Anna had enjoyed the course and aced the exam. That summer she took flying lessons and within three months earned her Private Pilot licence.
She was enamoured with a young lad in Toronto and often flew for visits, taking friends to share expenses. Her piloting experiences grew, particularly with border crossings – because she lived in the USA. After a year at university, Anna completed a Commercial licence and an Instrument rating.

2020 Stamp Honouree Emily Crombez
Emily Crombez, the first Canadian female pilot to crew the CL-415 to fight forest fires says, “Firefighting involves scooping up many loads of water and dropping them in a specified fire target area, while often encountering updrafts, turbulence and smoke. You are heavy and slow, performing steep manoeuvers, exercises you are usually taught to avoid.”
The Emily Crombez stamp was launched on June 19, 2020 at the Tillsonburg Airport, the anniversary of Emily’s first solo on floats. We invite you to help celebrate Emily Crombez’s remarkable career by using this beautiful stamp.
Air Race Classic 2019 Commemorative Stamp
The first Women’s cross-country Air Race was held in 1929. From Sunday, August 18 – Monday, Aug. 26, 19 women flew solo from Santa Monica, California to Cleveland, Ohio – a distance of over 3,000 statute miles or 2,600 nautical miles.
By the end of the race most of these women had developed a comradeship which led to the formation of the Ninety-Nines on November 2, 1929, named for the number of its charter members. During the past 90 years has grown to an organization of over 6000 members in several different countries. Thus we are celebrating the 90th anniversary of air racing AND the formation of the Ninety-Nines!
