If you've traveled on a commercial airline, more than likely the person sitting at the pilot's seat was male.

According to the organization, Women in Aviation, Women account for less than 20% of the aviation workforce, and less than 5% are airline pilots.

A Louisville school is trying to close that gap and make the skies more female friendly.

There always the aviation girls in Aviation Day at Bowman Field each year.

And we took a few students my first year when I was here, and I just thought, you know what?

It would be awesome if we had one on school grounds because we have a hangar, we have all this and just show our students what we have to offer.

Here at Trinity, we have two pathways.

We have flight in aeronautics and aircraft maintenance are two career pathways and they we learn discrepancies within the aviation field where it's a male dominated field.

And we just want to show our female students that there are other possibilities out there.

And we have female representatives come so they can see a female in that role and ask questions and get hands on experience.

And just even if they don't choose this pathway that we've opened their eyes to it at, the possibility is we just have to find.

My role is to help the students figure if they want to do aviation.

And I like I'm helping them like learn information about pilots and airplanes and seeing people that look like you act like you and, you know, are the same gender.

You you you have more hope.

I just like flying.

And I've been in because I travel a lot, too.

So it's like interest.

And I want to know how they do it and find facts about it.

That's always what I want to do.

And we have Campbells go because they offer dual credit within the aviation pathway.

We also have Army National Guard and Air Air National Guard.

Well, aviation, Obama has brought aircraft maintenance simulators so students can get an experience of what that might be like.

We also have our desktop simulators where they can fly an airplane as well as an airplane here in the hangar so they can see what that looks like and how our students have taken it apart and put it back together.

I feel like there's not a lot of aviation programs in general.

And if you have people like a lot of my friends doing aviation as females, it should be a better hope, I guess, for you to do it too, especially because there's people your age doing the same thing you want to do and a program that you would actually like to do.

I feel like it really helps us to make a decision and know what we want to do and choose our careers.

Amazing path that we want to study in college or university.

I got to learn a lot and it really helped me and I think I'm going to do aviation and that's going to be my major.
