Whitefish, Montana, September 20, 2021 \u2013\u00a0Despite Challenging Odds\u2026The Journey Continues.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sokn Engineering, a Woman Owned Company Fostering Innovation for Women in the fields of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics), proudly recognizes Zara Rutherford and FlyZolo in her continued quest to become the youngest woman at the age of 19 to circumnavigate the globe solo in her high-performance microlight aircraft.<\/p>\n

Ms. Rutherford, working her way up the West Coast of the U.S., was scheduled to touch down at the Kalispell International Airport in Montana on September 16, 2021.\u00a0 Unfortunately, due to a technical issue with her plane, California wildfires, and strong Rocky Mountain cross winds, forced Zara to divert to Oregon.\u00a0 Despite the challenges, a large crowd gathered at the Glacier Jet Center to celebrate Ms. Rutherford\u2019s tenacity and courage in her quest to fly around the world solo and to bring awareness to the gender gap of women in STEM fields and aviation.\u00a0 Although Ms. Rutherford was not able to be there in person, the crowd was treated to a Zoom call with Zara.\u00a0 She shared her thoughts about her journey as well as fielded a number of questions from the audience.<\/p>\n

Cassie Monaco, Sokn Engineering\u2019s CEO and FlyZolo\u2019s first corporate sponsor, had this to say about Ms. Rutherford. \u201cZara is very courageous and what she is attempting is very dangerous, 5 continents, 52 countries, and close to 100 days solo in a plane is daunting. We chose to be Zara\u2019s first sponsor because we not only believe in her and wanted to be the wind under her wings, but Zara\u2019s goal aligns perfectly with Sokn\u2019s mission of advancing women in STEM.\u00a0 We are also proud to be in good company with FlyZolo\u2019s other sponsor\u2019s including Virgin, Bose, Shark, and ICDSoft,\u201d said Ms. Monaco.<\/p>\n

During the Zoom call, Ms. Rutherford\u2019s positive attitude was evident as she said, \u201cI am thrilled with my journey so far and have had only a few hurdles to overcome including a loss of communication while flying over the North Atlantic, that was very scary.\u201d\u00a0 Ms. Rutherford went on to share her appreciation for Sokn Engineering. \u00a0\u201cCassie and Sokn have been great partners in my journey, and I\u2019ll look forward to continuing our relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n

Ms. Rutherford\u2019s route has taken her from Belgium through the UK, Iceland, Greenland, Canada, the East Coast of the US, the Caribbean, and Latin America.\u00a0 After leaving the continental United States this week, Zara will head north via Alaska to Russia, China, Indonesia, Middle East and then back home to Belgium. She hopes to complete her world voyage in early November. To follow Zara\u2019s journey, go to www.FlyZolo.com.<\/p>\n
