We still can\u2019t get over the excitement from #OSH22<\/strong><\/a>, the annual EAA AirVenture Oshkosh<\/a><\/strong> aviation event in Wisconsin! Envoy recruiters were onsite connecting with aviation enthusiasts while Envoy First Officer Patricia Serrano<\/strong> participated in the \u201cLatina Trailblazing Pilots\u201d panel.<\/p>\n

Lt. Col. Olga Custodio<\/a><\/strong> (USAFR, RET), America\u2019s first Latina Military and Commercial Airline Pilot moderated the panel. As a Retired American Airlines Captain, she invited women leaders in Military, Commercial and Corporate Aviation to share their valuable experiences for others developing a career in aviation.<\/p>\n

Be Bold<\/h2>\n

The theme of the panel was \u201cBe Bold,\u201d which is a mantra of sorts to encourage women aviators to get out of their comfort zone to achieve their dreams. The panelists spoke about their personal backgrounds, obstacles they\u2019ve had to overcome and they also shared how often they use the Spanish language in their careers each day.<\/p>\n

Representation Matters<\/h2>\n

By participating in events like this, women \u2014 especially women of color \u2014 help encourage other young women in all aviation career fields. After the panel, members of the audience networked with the panelists, asked questions one on one and took photos with their new heroines.<\/p>\n
