Again, we’ll be making make world history as the largest single outreach event of its kind! Over 15,000 participants of all ages from many communities around BC, Washington and beyond are expected. Families welcome!
An annual event as part of the week of International Women’s Day. Females of all ages and their families gather from far and wide for a truly unique mission of discovery. The events are fun, hands-on and completely free to ensure there are no barriers to participation. This is thanks to agency, industry and community partners like UFV.
One of the unique attractions at our events are the free flights for female first-time fliers. The first flight experience is so incredibly amazing that we just have to share it! It’s often the catalyst that is needed to inspire interest in Aviation, Aerospace, Marine & Defence. The opportunities are endless.
Civilian and non-civilian VIPs are on hand to meet with participants and a variety of cool aircraft and equipment is available for all to explore. Hands-on displays and fun activities are provided by industry, agency and education partners for a tactile learning experience.
The event is open to the public with no registration required to attend. However registration is required for eligible females to fly. Stay tuned to this page for more information and event updates.
