At the Women in Aviation Conference in 1993, a group of corporate pilots, dispatchers, technicians and other business aviation professionals gathered to swap stories and advice on professional development in their segment of the aviation industry. For more than 25 years, Women in Corporate Aviation has fulfilled that role—and delivered not only mentorship, but scholarships too, for women interesting in furthering their capabilities within whichever aviation discipline they pursue.
