Are you excited about flying or in any aspects of aviation? Well, we are
too. The New Zealand Association of Women in Aviation is an enthusiastic group
that aims to foster friendship amongst women interested in aviation. Through our
network, meetings, rallies and newsletters, we encourage you to extend your knowledge and
experience in your chosen sport or profession.
You have access to a great network of women who are involved either professionally or
recreationally, in a wide range of aviation activities. You will be inspired by the enthusiasm of our members and can draw on the knowledge and skills of women aviators who have many years experience or share ideas with other women just starting out. If you
want to find out more about aviation then go to our Links page for a range of relevant websites, or click Here to find answers to frequently asked questions.
You will
receive our great newsletter every quarter which is full
of articles, updates, lively stories and useful information
all submitted by our New Zealand and overseas members. Click here and enjoy a sample of the wonderful articles featured
in our previous newsletters FREE! Or join
now and start receiving your copy by post or e-mail.
We hold an annual Rally at Queen's Birthday Weekend at different locations, alternating between the North and South Islands across New
Zealand. You would have the opportunity to fly in for a memorable weekend of competition, education, camaraderie and our Annual General
Meeting. There are competitions for pilots at all levels of experience including
fixed-wing, glider, helicopter and microlight aircraft pilots as well as for parachustists.
The Association
also offers scholarships to assist women starting out
in flying or to assist members in achieving practical
and or theoretical flight training. As a member,
you may also apply for Hours Awards to recognise
the achievement of certain milestones in your aviation career.
Each major milestone (500 hours, 1000 hours, 5000 hours
10 000 hours) is denoted by a badge and these awards
are presented at the Association's Annual Rally.
The
Asia Pacific "Women in Aviation" Conference is held every three
years and we host the conference alternately with the
Australian Women Pilots Association. Speakers from
around the world are chosen to provide a fascinating and informative conference in many different aspects of
aviation. Panel discussions and workshops are included
while the social events allow for valuable networking.
