If You're Curious About Aviation —
This Is For You.
Babes & Blades exists in part because not enough women see aviation as something they can actually do. We want to change that — through real conversations, real information, and real connections to the people who can help you take the next step. Whatever that step looks like.
Anyone Who's Wondered.
Mentorship at Babes & Blades isn't gatekept. It's not just for one type of person, one career path, or one age. If you've ever looked at aviation and wondered if there was a place for you in it — the answer is yes, and we'd love to talk.
Thinking About Flight Training
You've thought about getting your private pilot certificate, or going commercial, or eventually flying for a living. You don't know what the steps actually look like or what it costs. We can talk through it honestly.
Aviation Career Curious
Pilot isn't the only path. Aviation includes mechanics, dispatchers, schedulers, FBO operations, business roles, and more. We can help you understand what the industry actually looks like beyond the cockpit.
Mid-Career or Returning
Aviation isn't only for people who started young. Plenty of pilots and aviation professionals come to it later — sometimes much later. If you're considering a shift, we'd love to hear what's on your mind.
You Just Have Questions
Maybe you're not sure if you're "serious" enough to ask. Maybe you just want to know what flying actually feels like, what the journey actually involves, or what the first step looks like. That's a great place to start. Reach out anyway.
An Honest Conversation —
Not a Sales Pitch.
We're being upfront: the formal Babes & Blades mentorship program is still being built. What we offer right now is real — but it's also intentionally simple.
| Today | One-on-one conversations · No cost · No commitment |
| Format | Phone, video, or in person if you're in Idaho |
| What we'll cover | Whatever you want — your goals, the path, the costs, the questions you don't know who to ask |
| Who you'll talk with | Breanna, the founder. A real person who actually flies. |
| When training is the next step | We connect you with Alpine Aviation or another vetted instructor |
| 2026 program | Structured cohort coming — get on the list now |
A Few Honest Boundaries
We are not a flight school. We do not provide FAA-regulated flight instruction. When you're ready for actual training, we connect you with FAA-certified instructors at Alpine Aviation or another partner.
We are not a recruiter. We won't pressure you into a specific path, school, or timeline. The goal is information, not enrollment.
We're not magic. We can't promise you a career. What we can promise is honest answers, real connections, and a person who actually wants to see you succeed.
Drop Us a Note
Tell us a little about where you're at. We'll reach out personally and see what's helpful. No mass emails. No drip campaigns. Real responses from a real person. Prefer to call? 208-315-2000
Why This Matters to Me
When I started looking into flying, I didn't know anyone who could give me a straight answer about what it actually took. I had to figure most of it out alone — what training cost, what the path looked like, whether I was allowed to take this seriously even though I didn't fit the picture in most people's heads.
I want to be the person I needed back then. That's it. That's the whole pitch.
If you're somewhere on this journey and you want a real conversation with someone who's a few steps ahead — drop me a note. I read every one.
"You don't have to know what you're doing to take the first step. You just have to be willing to ask."
