MTSU Air Raiders

Air Raiders is a college based chapter of Women in Aviation, International (WAI) at Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU). Everyone is welcome.

Women in Aviation Air Raiders is a chapter of one of the world's largest aerospace organizations. We cooperate with other aerospace organizations in and out of school to host events, fundraisers, and contribute to the community. As a chapter we will go on at least one aerospace related trip per semester as well as other activities such as socials, sporting events, and other outreach programs. Our

main event is the Women in Aviation Conference that takes place yearly in the Spring. It is the largest aerospace conference in the country! We are excited to have you come check us out and get involved in the aerospace department and community!
