Fostering a Women Friendly Aviation Industry forum at AirVenture 2011

22 June, 2011 in Latest News, United States by Mireille - Intl Team Leader

Just a little over 30 days to go before AirVenture 2011! Women Of Aviation will be there.

WOAW Week founder, Mireille Goyer, will be interviewed on EAA radio on Monday morning and will be presenting two forums during the week. Many other Women Of Aviation from Canada, all corners of the United States, and even Ghana will be there.

On Thursday July 28, you are invited to join us at 2:45 PM in the EAA Museum’s Vette Theater as Mireille Goyer will present a forum titled: “Fostering a Women Friendly Aviation Industry”. Mark your calendars.

During the forum, you will discover five decades of Women Of Aviation’s statistics in the United States. These statistics will be compared to those of other male dominated fields for perspective. There are many surprises. You will also learn what other industries have done to change the trends and what YOU can do to shape the future. What’s more, you will have a chance to meet many special Women Of Aviation from around the world including Patricia Mawuli Nyekodzi, the first woman to earn a Ghana National Pilot License.

We are planning a “family” photo so please make sure to wear your Women Of Aviation Worldwide Week t-shirt and your VIP Club Pins (more about the pins here).

Introduce girls and women to flying; win gift cards from Aircraft Spruce!

2 February, 2011 in Canada, Latest News, United States by Mireille - Intl Team Leader

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.
