Neta Snook was more than a pilot-she was a trailblazer, a pioneer in a world where women were rarely seen and even less often heard. Her story is one of grit, determination, and an unrelenting passion for flight that broke barriers and paved the way for future generations of women in aviation. In the early 20th century, aviation was a male-dominated frontier, its skies reserved for daring men with access to resources and recognition. But Neta Snook defied societal norms, navigating a world of skepticism and resistance to become the first woman to train at the prestigious Curtiss Flying School. Her groundbreaking accomplishments extended far beyond her own achievements: she became a mentor to none other than Amelia Earhart, inspiring a legacy of female aviators who would follow in her slipstream.

With her legacy still inspiring pilots and dreamers alike, this book celebrates a pivotal figure in aviation history while exploring the lessons her life offers for today and the future. As today's aviation industry continues to grow and diversify, Neta Snook's legacy remains a powerful reminder of the courage it takes to lead the way. This is a story of ambition, perseverance, and the enduring impact of one woman's quest to soar beyond limits-a story that continues to inspire dreamers, innovators, and trailblazers everywhere.
