Women in Aviation International Pioneer Hall of Fame

The Women in Aviation International Pioneer Hall of Fame (Also WAI Pioneer Hall of Fame) was established in 1992 by Women in Aviation International to honor and recognize women who have made significant contributions to aviation. Its purpose is to honor women who have made significant contributions as record setters, pioneers, or innovators in the aviation and aerospace industries. WAI solicits nominations from throughout the aviation industry each year for the WAI Pioneer Hall of Fame.[http://www.wai.org/pioneers/index.cfm Hall of Fame] Inductees are chosen from the nominations by a committee, "with special consideration given to individuals who have helped other women become successful in aviation or opened doors of opportunity for other women."{{Cite journal|date=September 2000|title=WAI Seeks Nominees for Hall of Fame|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=fHJzEYdWN5cC&dq=%22women+in+aviation%2C+international%22&pg=PA44|journal=Flying Magazine|volume=127|issue=9|page=44|access-date=19 July 2016}} Women are inducted to the hall of fame at the conclusion of the WAI annual conference.{{Cite web|url=https://sallyridescience.ucsd.edu/sally-ride-inducted-into-the-women-in-aviation-international-pioneer-hall-of-fame/|title=Sally Ride Inducted into the Women in Aviation International Pioneer Hall of Fame|date=27 March 2014|website=Sally Ride Science|language=en-US|access-date=2019-01-02}}
