Interesting statistics, Tom. Thanks a lot for publishing.

These are always so interesting to see...  It's scary how few females responded to the survey, or exist in the hobby!

Very, very interesting!

 

I am surprised there are more Brits here that Canadians... but with the population aggregation between those two countries, I probably shouldn't be surprised. I also would have guessed there were a higher % of Australians than 5%.

 

I have to say, I am not surprised at all about the almost non-existent amount of females within the hobby... (going from my wife's view of it all!! :lol:).

 

Very interesting :smile:

the country where i lived in is not listed. Not even appeared in "0%".  I am pretty sure I took part in the survey.

I was thinking the same thing. I wonder why this is? Are there really this few female flightsim enthusiasts? Do they not feel welcome at Avsim/other flight sim sites? If so, what can we do to get more women interested in flight sims and make them feel a part of the community?

 

Sure aviation is male-dominated, but I'm pretty sure the relative number of female pilots in the real world is greater than this.

Agreed! My wife doesn't care about the time. Its about the money. She works weekend nights which is when I fly so its not a real problem. I will give her this she has been pretty good about it over all the years and dollars spent. She seems to understand the importance of having a hobby. I have dragged her to many an airshow and airport to plane spot now that my son is old enough he is the one I drag along but my daughters hate the noise! 

my country is not there not even 0% maybe no one is interested in aviation here  :Hmmmph: :Waiting:
