Monterey Bay Ninety-Nines

"As soon as we left the ground, I knew I had to fly myself. Miles away I saw the ocean... The Hollywood hills smiled at me over the edge of the cockpit... We were friends, the ocean, the hills, and I."

Amelia Earhart
after her first flight in an airplane, a ten minute sight-seeing trip over Los Angeles, 1920

If you are a licensed woman pilot, we invite you to join The Ninety-Nines and our chapter. Come to a meeting and get acquainted with some interesting women flyers. The Ninety-Nines promote world fellowship through flying, scholarship opportunities for women, aviation education in the community and the preservation of the unique history of women in aviation. We are strengthened by our members and in turn, our members draw strength from the organization.

Don't have your license yet? Not a problem. You can now join as a Future Woman Pilot (aka "student pilots") to give you all the support and encouragement that you might need to complete your training. For only $20 per year and a one-time fee of $10, you can become a member. All you need is a current medical certificate and you can join under this category for two years or until you receive your license when you'll become eligible to become a Ninety-Nine. And more good news, once you join, you start accumulating the time required to apply for an Amelia Earhart Memorial Scholarship!

Contact our Membership Chairman, Donna Crane-Bailey to find out more about joining in the fun.
