SPEAKER PROGRAM
|
September23rd, Lola Reid Allin
HIGHWAY to the SKY: Women in Aviation
|
|
In 1980, Lola earned her commercial pilot license and became one of a handful of women licensed to fly for hire.
Lola explains the rewards of an aviation career and the challenges faced by women, then and now. She offers several possible reasons why women
remain under-represented in commercial aviation (only 5%-7% of pilots are female!) and why aviation or other STEM careers lure
few women.
|
|
|
Lola is co-lead for the Education & Outreach Committee, First Canadian Chapter, Ninety-Nines International Organization
of Women Pilots.

PROBUS' Vital Purpose
... to stimulate thought,
interest and participation in activities at a time in life when it is easy to become complacent and
self-centred.
