Today, The Ninety-Nines are professional pilots for airlines, industry and government; we
are pilots who teach and pilots who fly for pleasure; we are pilots who are technicians and mechanics. But first and foremost, we are women who love to fly!
The Ninety-Nines, Inc is an international organization of licensed women pilots from 35 countries. We currently have over 5,500 members throughout the world. We are a
non-profit, charitable membership corporation holding 501(c)(3) status. Although there are other female pilot organizations in various states and nations, virtually all women of achievement in aviation have been or are members of The Ninety-Nines.
Our organization was founded in 1929 by ninety-nine licensed women pilots for the mutual support and advancement of aviation. Our local chapter is Hawaii's only chapter (to date). This chapter was started up with a nucleus of "transplanted" 99s from mainland chapters, plus new recruits. The chapter has a short early history from the late 1940s to the early 1950s.
