UK GA Misogyny;Are Female Pilots Denigrated.

[Romeo Tango]

My experience (copied from a similar thread):

I'm male but I gave my wife flying lessons to PPL as a wedding present. She is not stupid but found the whole subject quite alien. We men absorb quite a lot of the technical stuff over the years, many (more) of us have done physics O-level/GCSE so we know vaguely some of how an aeroplane works, we probably have picked up the principles of 4 stroke engines etc etc. All this was new to her so made the whole learning curve much steeper. She persevered and passed her GFT when 8 months pregnant. A month later she had the baby followed by another and (unsurprisingly) did not want to fly in a light aircraft again for some years and has never renewed her licence. Now she knows enough to .... comment on how I do it
