Yeah, you're right I'm just a lowly FO :rolleyes:

Why you all defensive? In the ad she was FO.

If only there was a place in aviation for men 😫

Not defending the poster, but I am getting tired of these type of stories. Since 2003 in the AF Res, my squadron had a “chick crew” and it was a novelty then. During a deployment, for a month I filled in for one for the members of the “chick crew” and learned a lot, good and bad. As my wife has told me, all women in an office do not always work well together. That can go for any group.

BL: We need to stop getting caught up in any of the stories posted here. Dad and son, mom and daughter, dad and daughter, all I can say is good for you and I hope there were no family issues while in the cockpit. Good PR, but is it good overall?

Fly safe!

Not part of the gender discussion, but I've worked with Wendy for a long time, and I'd give extra credit to any of her offspring. Good pilot, good person.

Met her daughters when they were toddlers. Feeling old, but pleased right now.

I went through indoc with Kelly and met her whole family. Class act all the way around. I’m sure our whole class has similar words.

I always find these stories cool no matter the gender. I wish one of my family members was a Delta pilot so I could have the same opportunity.

That one would probably blow all his fuses. FUBAR.

Well played.

Whatever happened to the regional guy who send video resumes to SW because he wanted to fly with his dad before he retired?

Women get the interview calls first. Not always the job. But they get the calls first.

Prove it. No anecdotes.

It’s a forum. Respect my observations. What Todd Chavez and Shy guy may be saying is the “girl power” may be being laid on a little too strong right now all over the place! Movies/tv/you name it. *oh boy am I going to hear it now*. :)
