AN AVIATION EXPERT.
There are over twenty women air-pilots in the United States, but only two of them, Mrs. Omlie and Miss Ruth Nichols, hold transport licenses. Miss Nichols is director of the organisation committee of the Aviation Country Clubs’ Association, and her career reads like a fairy tale. A student of literature and languages at Vassar College, she suddenly dropped these subjects and took up engineering and navigation, working at various aviation grounds in the United States, France, and Vienna. She was appointed director of aviation promotion for seven United States companies about 18 months, ngo, and is now directing the A.C.C.A. activities at a salary that many men would envy.
