Naomi Wadsworth graduated from the University of Northern Colorado with a BA in Anthropology and an MBA from Mary Mount University. In 1982 Sweetpea, along with several other pilots, formed the National Warplane Museum in Geneseo, NY. She started flying the smaller museum aircraft to airshows and as time went by added an instrument rating and hours in a Beech 18 and Piper Aztec. In the 1990’s Sweetpea obtained a B-17 type rating. In 2003 she was hired to fly a Lear 31 from New York to Florida and the Bahamas.

Sweetpea has continued to expanded from pilot to airshow Airboss to a year round commitment to the museum. She is also responsible for finding acts for the National Warplane Museum's annual air show and for all its safety and waiver compliance. She flies many of the museum aircraft, but the world famous C-47 “W-7”, a veteran of the D Day invasion, is where she spend most of my time.
