I was trying to steer clear of the particulars of the case and look at the general reasons behind the claims that other female pilots have been held back.
As Whirlybird says, if that is the case then it is prejudice, pure and simple; prejudging a group of women on the basis of one woman's actions.
We have somehow ended up living in a litigious society but we can't (employers as well as employees) all believe that going to law will solve the injustices of this world and we can't all assume that that is the course of action which people will take.
