From the day Aircraft Spruce opened its doors in 1965, there was a woman playing a fundamental role – Flo Irwin. Husband Bob, a pilot, knew airplane parts and Flo knew how to keep the customers coming back. Together, they turn their small company into a worldwide distributor of aircraft parts and pilot supplies. Today, Bob and Flo’s oldest son, Jim, an experienced pilot, and his wife Nancy, a private pilot, continue to expand the business.

With such a track record of including women in its aviation business, it is no wonder than Aircraft Spruce chose to celebrate Women of Aviation Worldwide Week by offering gift cards to participating pilots. We welcome Aircraft Spruce as our latest Bronze Sponsor. Please visit the website of this truly women-friendly aviation business. Find them on Twitter and Facebook.
