We hope you like hot pink! Thursday morning saw a record gathering of female pilots on AeroShell Square here at EAA AirVenture. The rendezvous reminded visitors to the show that aviation isn't just for the boys' club and hopefully encouraged women of all ages and backgrounds to pursue their interest in flying. Among the attendees were celebrity pilots, renowned authors, acclaimed journalists and photographers, and many recognizable movers and shakers in the industry.
