The Ninety-Nines is an organization designed to support female pilots that has been in existence since 1929 and was founded by famous early pilot Amelia Earhart and 98 of her peers.

Their Museum of Women Pilots is located in Oklahoma City, and has many interesting displays of women’s aviation artifacts, including the largest collection of Amelia Earhart artifacts in the world. It was first built in 1999, and takes up the entire second floor of the Ninety-Nines headquarters.
