Some long-time aviation industry veterans have asked me to explore the potential of creating an endowed scholarship in memory and honor of Nathalia Filgueiras. Many feel that she represented not only female pilots, but also a new generation of aviators working their way up the aviation career ladder. In that light, we feel it’s only right to honor her life by making aviation more accessible to other women and young people.

Before moving forward, I want to have her family’s blessing. If someone can help me gain their approval, I would be grateful.

I’ll also need the aviation community's help to fundraise, structure, and endow properly. My contact information will be on the KittyHawk link below.

If you are interested in helping or want to be part of the conversation, you can find me on KittyHawk. I can organize this endeavor and keep the conversations civil and productive there. Link below:

🫡 to you for this @MarcPilot75!
This is what love and passion of aviation looks like. Seek flying jobs that satisfy that feeling of why you started flying in the first place. Air Ambulance sounds exciting and the service does so much good for people. A schedule and money that provides the ability to chase other airplanes dreams at the same time. This is what a successful aviation career should look like. I was lucky to have my own aviation career dreams come true. I encourage any young aviators to pursue a career that you’re passionate about and don’t chase money or seniority.

Eastern Kentucky University has built a great and expanding aviation program. I had the honor of speaking to a few classes yesterday and getting the full tour. I talked so much that I forgot to take any pics!
I was very impressed by the enthusiasm and genuine passion the students have for aviation.
If they are any indication of the future of aviation, we are in good hands!
