Whirly-Girls Recognizes Garmin Aviation Training

GPS Company Makes Commitment To The Whirly-Girls Scholarship Fund

The Whirly-Girls Scholarship Fund is proud to announce that Garmin Aviation Training has committed to providing two scholarships to Whirly-Girls to receive training in Garmin GTN and G500/G600 equipment for 2016.

Whirly-Girls is an organization of over 1,800 female helicopter pilots in 45 countries and continues to grow as women are becoming increasingly active in helicopter aviation. Garmin Aviation Training recognizes the importance of the contributions women have made in aviation and thus has partnered with the Whirly-Girls to assist women aviators in their career development. Garmin provides key avionics tools used throughout the aviation industry, and this scholarship will allow maximization and efficient integration of Garmin equipment capabilities into all flight operations.

“We are thrilled that Garmin Aviation Training is providing these scholarships to Whirly-Girls,” said Banu Cole, Whirly-Girls Scholarship Director. “Garmin equipment is used by most, if not all pilots, and this training will increase the pilots’ aptitude and confidence.”

Since 1968, the Whirly-Girls has awarded over 300 scholarships. This year in 2016, the organization awarded 28 scholarships to well-deserving applicants, exceeding a total value of $175,000.
