This is AWE - Aviation and Women in Europe's 1st official presence together with WAI - Women in Aviation, International.

What a unique chance to network, share experiences, get questions answered, see for ourselves that it can be done! Flyer

A lot of snow didn't cool the interest of the European ladies gathered in Frankfurt for "Frauen Power!"

Goldline Aviation hosted the event and warmed the chilly german winter with their wonderful hospitality... and the generous reception in their conference room o­n the 27th floor permitting a birdseye view over the city of Frankfurt: the right place to begin flying high!

Among the attendees were: an aviation lawyer, an FAA flight instructor, a JAA flight instructor, a purser for Lufthansa, a flight dispatcher for Turkish airlines and WAI scholarship recipient, an owner of a flight school, ATC, a glider pilot and college student, an aviation enthusiast and many more.
