Little Drops of Water Our Lady of Loreto Figurine Our Lady of Loreto was declared the Universal Patroness of Aviation by Pope Benedict XV, in 1920.

This religious festival takes place on the first weekend of September. Devotees and worshippers include pilots and others occupations both from the Portuguese civil and military aviation.
