Oldest female commercial pilot is still flying high
Deborah Lawrie is the world's oldest female commercial pilot but her 50 years of flying only began after winning a landmark High Court case against Ansett Airlines. (www.abc.net.au) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
While I applaud Ms Lawrie's achievement I believe we will have truly made progress when we no longer need to report this sort of news and a pilot is viewed as a pilot regardless of their gender.
Steadily we are getting there, thanks to her and others like her.
She seems to have handled decades of service in a male oriented field with class and humor. She makes me proud.
I salute you Captain Lawrie,,, job well done. (from a KDFW Texan, U.S.A.)
