As if going on your first flight was not exciting enough, in addition to receiving a digital First Flight Certificate, you could win DVDs, aviation t-shirts, or books!
All you have to do is accept our challenge: go on an introductory flight during Women Of Aviation Worldwide Week, March 7-13 2011, and ask your pilot to complete a flight report that includes your email address. That’s all. You could be a winner.
But, we hope that, like us, you will really, really, like flying and that you will start flight lessons to become a pilot. Flying the aircraft on your own, known as soloing, is a right of passage for all pilots that is both exciting and unforgettable. The moment you solo an aircraft, you become a pilot!
AOPA wants to make this special event even more special by offering a stunning and collectible Pedre-Triumph AOPA watch to the first woman who will solo after going on her first flight during the 2011 Women of Aviation Worldwide Week.
I excited to find out who will be the first woman to solo among all the women who take their first flight during the 2011 Women of Aviation Worldwide Week around the world!
I began flying in October of last year and having made it through all the bad weather, self doubt, and botched landings with my CFI I am now just a lesson or 2 away from my first solo!!! 🙂 Thank you to everyone for supporting the women of aviation!
I hope that you will hear an announcement about that event! Enjoy it, it is very special and incredibly empowering.
