SISTERS OF THE SKY OVER THE DECADES SINCE 1929
THE FIRST CANADIAN CHAPTER 99S WELCOMES YOU!
The members of the Ninety-Nines are part of the ONLY international women’s pilots’ organization in the world. The organization has been international in scope since its founding in 1929. We currently have over 5,000 members in 45 countries.
