Way to go Patience!

Congrats to 𝗣𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗿 from Wadsworth, Ohio on completing her first cross-country solo flight ... a major milestone in her journey toward her Private Pilot License!

This solo flight is significant because it shows that a student pilot can plan, navigate, and fly safely on their own over longer distances, demonstrating growing skill and confidence in the cockpit.

Way to go, Patience! The sky is yours! 🌤️🛩️

The Cleveland Chapter of Women in Aviation International is at a turning point — and we need your help to keep our mission strong in Northeast Ohio.

Since 2013, our chapter has inspired and connected aviators of all ages and backgrounds through events, outreach, and mentorship. To continue that impact, we’re seeking new board members and active volunteers to help shape our 2026 programs and guide the chapter into its next chapter of growth.

If you’re passionate about advancing opportunities in aviation and strengthening our local aviation community, this is your chance to make a real difference. Please join us at our virtual information session to learn how you can help the Cleveland Chapter continue to grow, connect, and inspire.

On behalf of the Women in Aviation – Cleveland Chapter, I want to extend our sincere gratitude to all of our exhibitors, volunteers, attendees, and partners including Flexjet and CommutAir.

Your generous support and donations make it possible for us to inspire the next generation and turn dreams into reality for young people. This event takes countless hours of planning, outreach, and coordination, and it would not be possible without your dedication and commitment.

Thank you for being part of this meaningful day and for helping us open doors to aviation for the leaders of tomorrow.
