Who was the first licensed woman pilot?

McGruff

Women have made a significant contribution to aviation since the Wright Brothers’ first 12-second flight in 1903. Blanche Scott was the first women pilot, in 1910, when the plane that she was allowed to taxi mysteriously became airborne. In 1911, Harriet Quimby became the first licensed woman pilot. And later in 1912, Harriet became the first women to fly across the English Channel. In 1921, Bessie Coleman became the first African-American woman pilot. http://www.ninety-nines.org/wia.html Mar 09 06, 7:27 PM
