While Amelia Earhart is widely recognized as leader in women’s aviation, she was not alone as a pioneering pilot. #AmeliaEarhart was the first woman to fly solo nonstop across the Atlantic. In 1937, she vanished mysteriously over the Pacific during her attempted around-the-world flight.
.
In 1929, Gladys O’Donnell entered the first Women’s Air Derby with reportedly only 40 hours of solo flying time and placed second. The following year she would place first in the California-to-Ohio race.
.
Viola Gentry set the first non-refueling endurance record for women in 1928 when she flew for 8 hours, 6 six minutes and 37 seconds. She earned the nickname the “flying waitress” at her day job in a North Carolina restaurant.
.
Florence Lowe “Pancho” Barnes founded the first movie stunt pilots’ union. She broke #Earhart’s speed record in 1930.
.
Phoebe Omlie was the first woman to receive a license as an airplane mechanic and transport pilot, and set several world records, including the highest altitude parachute jump by a woman in 1928.
.
The following year, Louise McPhetridge Thaden would become the first pilot to hold the women’s altitude, endurance and speed records in light planes simultaneously.

In honor of #WomensHistoryMonth, we are looking back at key achievements of women.
