In honor of Juliana Turchetti, the first Brazilian woman to pilot agricultural aircraft on U.S. soil and a Fire Boss seaplane pilot who gave her life in the line of duty while fighting wildfires, Dauntless Air is proud to present the Juliana Turchetti Memorial Scholarship. This award honors her legacy by supporting women pursuing a sea plane rating. This scholarship will award women pilots with funding toward a seaplane add-on rating. The award can be used towards: Seaplane training course costs, Aircraft rental, Checkride fees, or potential lodging stipend (only if excess funds remain). Applicants must be a current WAI member with an expiration date no later than March 30, 2027, or join as a new member by August 30, 2026. International applicants may apply. This scholarship is intended for a woman holding at least a Private Pilot Certificate at the time of application. Applicants must hold a current FAA medical (Class 1, 2, or 3 preferred; BasicMed considered). Applicants must submit two letters of recommendation. Letters cannot be from family members. At least one letter of recommendation submitted with the application must be from a flight instructor or pilot who has flown with the applicant. Final candidates may be invited to interview with Dauntless/Legacy Wings as part of the final selection process.
