"In 1931, Amelia Earhart was elected the first President, and the group selected the name "Ninety-Nines" to represent the
99 charter members. Membership was immediately opened to other women as they became licensed pilots. The Ninety-Nines, Inc.
is an international organization of licensed women pilots from 44 countries with thousands of members throughout the world.
The Ninety-Nines are a non-profit, charitable membership corporation holding 501(c)(3) U.S. tax status. The International
