The Ninety-Nines International Organization of Women Pilots recently celebrated its 95th year at the Oklahoma Capitol dome. Established in 1929 by 99 women pilots to promote the “advancement of aviation through education, scholarships, and mutual support while honoring our unique history and sharing our passion for flight,” the organization’s first president was Amelia Earhart. The 99s have been based in Oklahoma since 1955.
