Period
1937- 1940.
Canada
The 'Flying Seven' woman pilots group consisted of Jean Pike, Tosca Trasolini, Betsy Flaherty, Alma Gilbert, Elianne Roberge, Margaret (Fane) Rutledge, and Rolie Moore. The group formed in Vancouver in 1936, and met and flew regularly until disbanding shortly after the end of the war. It was the first registered female pilots organization in Canada. The group held competitions amongst themselves and organized flying exhibitions, promoting the role and growth of women in aviation in Canada. Not eligible for active service during WWII, the group undertook fund raising efforts and purchased a number of aircraft used to train male pilots for wartime duty. To further assist the war effort, the club organized ground school training. These classes were a great success. The Vancouver school board lent classroom facilities and several qualified flight instructors volunteered their time. Many graduates joined the Women s Air Force while others went to the Boeing plant.
