MEXICO – The first civil association, Women in the Aeronautical Industry, was founded by aviator pilots Constanza Marique García and Esmeralda Vasco Ruiz.

As part of Women's Day, the Mexican Airline Pilots Union Association (ASPA), through its Gender and Substantive Equality Secretariat, led by Captain Martha Vera, held a forum for Aeromexico's female airline pilots.

The event was attended by representatives of the Mexican Air Force (FAM), aviation students, staff and ASPA representatives.
