Jenny Dillon’s mission to prove “Women Can Do It Too”
Aerobatic aviation is a developing sport in Argentina with public displays previously limited to air shows, but in 2019 the Argentine Aerobatics Association organised its first national competition. Just one of the pilots was female. Her name is Jenny Dillon: Argentina’s only female pilot with an aerobatic FAI Sporting Licence.
In this inaugural competition, Jenny obtained the first place not only in her category but also in the general category (glider and airplane), achieving the highest overall score of the competition. She is also part of the first Argentine national team to compete internationally; in the Aerobatic Championship 2019 in LOAS, held in Austria, Jenny obtained a second place in her category in the glider class.
