Aero-Linx!
Scouring the information super airways can sometimes be a tough, if educational, task for the Aero-News staff... but it also allows us to check out some truly neat and exciting sites, so it's not that bad a gig. On any given day, we may check dozens (and often hundreds) of different sources for story ideas, and facts confirmation. And, as is the nature of our business, much of this is done on the Internet.
The ANN gang decided we probably shouldn't keep some of the neat sites, info resources, and organizations we've discovered to ourselves... so we decided to bring you Aero-Linx. These are the sites that WE check out -- when we need added perspective, a new spin on a day's topic... or just want to escape into cyber-aero-space for awhile.
Look for some of our favorite sites, coming each day to ANN via Aero-Linx. Suggestions for future Aero-Linx segments are always welcome, as well.
Aero Linx: Sisters of the Skies
Sisters of the Skies is comprised of professional black women pilots who represent less than ½ of 1% of the total professional pilot career field. In a profession that lacks diversity, SISTERS of the SKIES provides encouragement, professional development, and support to our members. Whether on the flight deck or social situations, we strive to be there for our SISTERS of the SKIES.
The organization offers outreach programs are geared towards students in elementary school, middle and high school. Although Sisters of the Skies’ focus is to expose and recruit black female youth and young adults to the professional pilot career, we prepare these ladies for “any” profession.
