About the Author
Lynda Meeks began her aviation career by serving in the United States Army where she accomplished her initial flight training to earn her wings. She flew both helicopters and fixed wing airplanes on various missions all over the world during her seven year active duty commitment with the US Army. In 2000, she transitioned to the commercial airlines and then to the fractional airlines flying the Citation X. She now resides in Lakewood, Ohio.
After more than a century of aviation growth and innovation, only 6% of pilots in the United States are women. Lynda concluded a concerted effort was needed to promote aviation to young girls so they ll develop an inherent interest in the aviation industry.
After five years of development as a volunteer organization, Girls With Wings, Inc., has become a non-profit corporation endorsing community outreach activities such as presentations to girls groups to raise awareness that Yes, Girls Can Fly!TM
