Camden operator Curtis Aviation is planning to hold a Female Flying Fest as part of the Women of Aviation Worldwide Week (WOAWW) in March.
The event is scheduled for Saturday 7 March, and aims to get as many women and girls into the air as possible and to have at least one female pilot continuously in the air from 0800 until late that day.
Special discount rates are being offered to female pilots who fly on the day. The company warns that although people can just roll-up on the day, only booking ahead will assure a flight.
WOAWW runs from 2-8 March, and targets women all over the world with the intent of introducing as many women as possible to aviation.
Last year in Australia, teams from across nine states took over 400 females flying for the first time in a small aircraft, and shared their love of everything aviation to over 1400 people who supported the various WOAWW events across the country.
Over 120 volunteers, 51 pilots and 45 different aircraft were used during the events which were held across nine states of Australia.
