I am not a professional pilot but a flight test engineer and aerodynamicist working with the military. I think all pilots should be female by law - same brain but only two thirds of the weight. That is a stunning aerodynamic advantage. Some chauvinistic male pilots I know dispute this analysis on the grounds that the female brain only works for two thirds of the time. Some female pilots dispute the same brain bit. From what I've seen from the outside lady pilots are doing well and having a ball - go for it.
