Women
in Aviation International this Spring honored the "100
Most-Influential Women in Aviation," as part of a tribute to 100
years of powered flight. Some are non-pilots; some are
controversial; some are obvious -- but they are all important, in
the furtherance of aviation.

been left out, you can't help but give credit to these 100
