The Ninety-Nines, Inc., is an international organization of licensed women pilots from 35 countries, with over 5,500 members throughout the world. They are a non-profit, charitable membership corporation holding 501(c)(3) U.S. tax status, with their international headquarters located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.

Although there are other female pilot organizations in various states and nations, virtually all women of achievement in aviation have been or are members of The Ninety-Nines.

Ninety-Nines are professional pilots for airlines, industry and government; they are pilots who teach and pilots who fly for pleasure; they are pilots who are technicians and mechanics. But first and foremost, they are women who love to fly!

As in any membership organization many chapter chairs will need to be filled along with a minimum membership to create a new chapter right here in Lake Arrowhead.

Please come out on Sunday and learn more about this great organization. For more information contact Patti Forsythe at (909) 337-2575 or visit http://www.lakearrowheadairport.com.
