Women Aviators “Watch Me Soar”

Women Aviators “Watch Me Soar” canvas art

Women have been involved in aviation from the beginnings of both lighter-than air travel and as airplanes, helicopters and space travel. Women pilots were also called “aviatrices” (singular: “aviatrix”). Women have been flying powered aircraft since 1908; prior to 1970, however, most were restricted to working privately or in support roles in the aviation industry. Aviation also allowed women to “travel alone on unprecedented journeys.” Women who have been successful in various aviation fields have served as mentors to younger women, helping them along in their careers.

Women Of Aviation Worldwide Week {WOAW} is a global aviation awareness week for girls of all ages observed to mark the anniversary of the world’s first female pilot licence (March 8, 1910). The week is a call to address gender imbalance in the air and space industry. Learn more HERE.
