SOUTH CAYUGA—South Cayuga resident and thrill-seeker Cathy Boyko has become the first Canadian to win the ‘Most Outstanding Ercoupe’ award at the North America Ercoupe Convention in Pennsylvania, where her vintage 1945 Ercoupe plane was the talk of the town.

Boyko, along with her husband Dennis, loves things that go fast. In addition to Cathy’s love of flight and planes, Dennis can often be found enjoying his drag racing hobby. In fact, she says it’s this shared love of import drag-racing that led her to aviation in the first place.
