Ninety-Nines Stamps Honour
Canadian Women Pilots

ARC 2019 stampThe Ninety-Nines is an international organization of licensed women pilots with over 6000 members in 44 countries, about 350 in Canada. Our members include a variety of professional pilots flying for airlines, private companies, instructors, and women who fly for pleasure. Our goals include supporting and encouraging women in their flying and to stimulate interest in aviation among girls. Please see canadian99s.com for more details about the Canadian Ninety-Nines.

In 2008, the East Canada Section of the Ninety-Nines initiated a stamp project in order to celebrate Canadian women pilots representing various flying careers. Each year, through Canada Post’s Picture Postage program, we produce a stamp which can be used as regular letter postage throughout Canada. All stamp purchasers receive a one page bio which they are encouraged to copy and insert in mail when they use the stamps.

Stamp users may purchase sheets of 50 or booklets of 12, depending upon how many you use. Souvenir seekers may prefer a keepsake sheet (for framing) or commemorative envelopes (first day covers).

Please note that these stamps cannot be purchased at Canada Postal outlets but are available at canadian99s.com/stamps. For further information, contact Marilyn Dickson at midickson@bell.net.
