Good luck to her but you have to ask - if it had been a 19 year old boy instead of a cute looking girl, would AOPA have run the story and would there be any social media interest?
Of course not, but it must be rare enough to still be a novelty.
And if just a few young girls decide "Hmm - I'd like a go at that", where's the problem?
Is positive publicity for the industry a bad thing?
