Turi Widerøe (born 23 November 1937) was the world's first female commercial air pilot for a major airline. The daughter of aviator Viggo Widerøe, (who founded, which today is Scandinavia's largest regional airline Widerøe), she was originally educated as a book designer. She later took a pilot's education, and, employed by Scandinavian Airlines System, became the first female pilot in a major airline in the western world. After ending her flight career she worked for numerous cultural institutions such as the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation, Gyldendal, Oslo Nye Teater and Riksteatret.
