Stinson eventually convinced aviation pioneer Max Lillie to teach her, and in 1912 she became the fourth American woman to obtain a pilot's license. Abandoning music, Stinson performed airplane stunts across the country as the “Flying Schoolgirl.” When the Stinson family later moved to San Antonio, Tex., they established the Stinson School of Flying.
