Yeah CX has about 14 female pilots so far... Wow...big deal out of about 1300 (?) pilots.
Aviation is one of the areas where physical strength is not an issue. It makes me mad to see flying competions divided into male/female entries...hmmmm...maybe thats for the guys benefit!!!
While in my home country (NZ) at least, women are now making up more than 50% of doctors and lawyers in training, we still lag way behind in women pilots but it is getting better. I think expectations and access to money unfortunately play a large part.
Best person for the job, end of story.
