Track what's when in 2010 with This Day in Women's Aviation!
Each entry in this page-a-day calendar for 2010 tells the story of a remarkable accomplishment or important milestone in women's aviation.
See who's listed in 2010!
In 2010, you'll come across:
- French flyer Marie Marvingt who, in 1910, established a new women's world speed record by flying 26 miles in 53 minutes
- Nancy Aldrich who, in 1999, became the first active U.S. female airline pilot to reach retirement age
These high-flying stories of courage, bravado, and just plain chutzpah will inspire you to accomplish whatever you set your mind to—on the ground and in the air!
See what pioneer aviatrixes have said about the 2009 calendar!
 What a great idea you have had! It is a fitting tribute, and I am humbled to have been included.

[The 2009 This Day in Women’s Aviation calendar] sure is packed with incredible info. It's so wonderful to see all the names of the pilots I know. Wally Funk was my flight instructor. I got to go up in Julie Clark's "yellow banana" while she did aerobatics. (Whewee, that was something.) And of course, our dear Bobbi was quite the pilot and instigator of all things aviation. :) And so many more!

I look forward to receiving the calendar. [Ruth] Elder was a first cousin to my father, Thomas W. McClellan, born and raised in Montgomery, AL. I want to give this to my dad for Christmas and I know he'll love it. He's now 82. He once had Ms. Elder's helmet and donated it to a museum in Birmingham, AL.
