Chapter members came out to meet & greet with the aviation community on November 20th at the AOPA Air Safety Foundation presentation of "Mastering Takeoffs & Landings" in Mission Valley. 99s worked the front tables where pilots would arrive to turn in their registration/prize drawing cards and assisted the presenter in giving away the door prizes. We also made sure all the ladies in attendance were aware of the International Organization of Women Pilots and the flight scholarships available on a local as well as international level. Flyers on a planned spring 2009 Flying Companion Seminar to be put on by the San Diego chapter as a fundraiser were also distributed. About 325 pilots were in attendance, with about 30 or so women who were not yet members- but hopefully all know know about the benefits of being a 99!
SD 99s are hostesses for AOPA ASF
