The Electric Aviatrix Podcast

The Electric Aviatrix is a storytelling podcast that empowers women and young girls to see themselves in the future of flight. Hosted by aviator, filmmaker, and third-generation pilot Susan Roe Musacchio, the show blends history, innovation, and personal legacy to illuminate how electric aviation and eVTOL technology are reshaping the sky.

Susan’s aviation roots run deep. Born into a Detroit family shaped by industry, grit, and the early days of American flight, her story begins long before her own time in the cockpit. Her grandmother, Eddie Ferguson, flew in the heroic era of Michigan aviation alongside Henry Ford’s test pilot Harry Brooks. Her courage and determination—navigating the skies when women were rarely invited into them—became the spark that ignited Susan’s lifelong passion. This podcast honors that lineage, carrying forward the spirit of the women who flew before us.

Each episode offers clear, accessible insights into the world of electric aircraft, drones, Advanced Air Mobility, and sustainable aviation. Through storytelling rather than technical jargon, Susan opens the door for listeners of all ages—especially young girls—to understand where aviation is headed and why their voices matter in its evolution.

From Detroit’s legacy of innovation to Illinois’ emerging leadership in clean aviation, The Electric Aviatrix connects past and future. Listeners will hear stories of trailblazing women pilots, learn how electric aircraft work, explore the impact of new mobility systems on communities, and discover the opportunities waiting in tomorrow’s airspace.

This podcast is more than information—it’s an invitation. An invitation for women to lead, for girls to dream bigger, and for communities to imagine a cleaner, more accessible future in the sky.
