Cabby,
if for no other reason to give you some facts:
1. Yes, there were some female candidates who got through to the flight tests.
2. The suggested starting pay for those selected is higher than one of the current TFO Training Officers with over 16 Years in the job - go figure.
3. There was no distinction between Fixed or Rotary wing - but the Fixed Wings are at least a year away.
Like Sid, so far I have not yet heard how many were successful and know of only one that wasn't.
