WAI Study Underscores Gender Gap in Aviation Workforce
The WAI women in the aviation workforce study found passion for aviation a top influencer, while "good ole boy" perception a hindrance.
WAI is highlighting a new study on gender gaps not only in the pilot population but throughout the aviation workforce. While only 7.3 percent of pilots and 1 percent of airline pilots are women, PlaneSense's pilot ranks are more than 10 percent female and includes captain Kris Hull (left) and first officer Kelsey Ten Hoeve.
