Dragonair pilot, Capt. Rosa Chak, the first Hong Kong-born Chinese woman to fly for a commercial airline, has notched up another first in her flying career by becoming the first female Hong Kong-born pilot to command B747-400s.
Capt. Chak, who has been flying in the left hand seat on Dragonair’s A330-300 since 1998 switched to B747-400 freighters in December after completing her type training earlier in the year.
She joined Dragonair as a cadet pilot in 1988 and made history when she graduated to become the first Hong Kong-born Chinese woman to fly for a Hong Kong commercial airline - Dragonair.
