Kenn Borek Air’s Captain Lindsay Owen, First Officer Ashley Stratton and Aircraft Maintenance Engineer Kate Stoyanovski joined the celebration of Girls in Aviation held at the Red Deer Regional Airport on September 24, 2022. Sponsored by Women in Aviation International (WAI), the event provided the opportunity for young girls and women to discuss their aviation career goals with industry professionals.
Captain Owen and her crew took the opportunity to listen to the dreams of aviation’s future and to talk about their personal career path to help inspire this future generation to follow their own aspirations within aviation.
Captain Owen and her crew were kept busy with the high level of guest participation. Captain Owen estimated that over 800 people took the opportunity to look at the view from the flight deck and to imagine themselves at the controls.
Thank you Lindsay, Ashley and Kate for taking time out of your busy schedules, being a positive influence in the lives of many young female aviators and for putting such a big smile on their faces!
Women in Aviation International is a non-profit organization dedicated to the encouragement and advancement of women in all aviation career fields and interests.
