Girls in Aviation

Description
On this special Girls in Aviation Day episode, we meet two young aviators who share their love for the flying community and give advice about how others can get involved. Sahara is an instrument-rated pilot attending Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. She's seen dramatic growth on campus since her first class a few years ago, when she was one of only two women in the lecture. And Mia is a high school glider pilot, who was raised in an aviation family. Both reflect on their journeys and the women who inspired, mentored and trained them. They're now able to pay it forward and create opportunities for other young women to follow their aviation dreams. Listen in and be inspired.
