The Attagirls Club will financially support future Attagirls Molly Rose Pilot Scholarships via donations at its events. The private membership club for female aviators provides opportunities for its Members to engage with an international network via regular social pop-ups, prime events and online. Members include those working in the commercial aviation sector, in the military, and those training for a PPL.
Said the club’s CEO Nadine Olavesen-Stabb: “It is with the greatest of pleasure that the Attagirls Club can support the Attagirls Molly Rose Pilot Scholarship going forward. The Club embodies just how exciting it is to work in aviation and we hope we can incentivise new women into the industry via membership and raising funds for the scholarship. We aim to bring together female aviators from all corners of the world into an environment that fits their profession … exclusive, bold and exciting. Aviators know better than anyone that there is no way to describe flying … it's really the experience that defines it”.
Nadine added: “We would love to see the Club bring together a thriving community of Attagirls, but more-so, we would like to change that all-important figure … 5% … the ratio of female to male pilots internationally. We hope the Club will spark interest from today’s youth into considering a flightpath into the aviation industry and with guidance from our experienced Attagirls”.
“The other reason is the symbiotic connection with the other parts of the Attagirls project; the book, the pilot scholarship and (hopefully) an upcoming feature film. These wonderful elements to the Attagirls brand will honour those women who were our inspiration and who set the standard for women in aviation … the female pilots of the Air Transport Auxiliary (‘ATA’). Their dream was always to fly in what was then the male-dominated world of the RAF. However, they had a dream and they went for it and when they got knocked back, they got back up, dusted themselves off, re-evaluated, re-focussed and carried on. They embraced every opportunity, ultimately epitomising the term ‘courage under pressure. The Attagirls project is a powerhouse for female aviators everywhere and our members are a big part of it.”
Teen Attagirls membership also is available to inspire young female aviators to continue their career in aviation and with our experienced Attagirls as role models.
The Club’s motto is Aetheris Avidi … Eager for the Air
