UFV’s Aerospace program is a gold sponsor of this weekend’s The Sky’s No Limit – Girls Fly Too! event, expected to draw up to 10,000 people from across the Lower Mainland.
Girls and women of all ages gather from far and wide at a selected airport for a truly unique mission of discovery. The events are fun, hands on and completely free to ensure no barriers to participation.
One of the unique attractions 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 and aerospace, whether as a pilot, air traffic controller, aircraft mechanic, or aeronautical engineer. Opportunities are endless.
Families are welcome at our events, and all participants are able to meet civilian and non-civilian VIPS, explore cool aircraft on static display and engage in hands-on learning activities.
The event is about education as much as it is about inspiring girls and women. Therefore everyone – male and female alike – is encouraged to experience the magic and uniqueness of this event and get involved.
Please note: Registration is not required to attend the event, however advance registration is required for female first-time fliers.
