Women in aviation should be encouraged - anyone who thinks that it is a job more suited to men is mildly delusional and does not properly ackowledge that women are just as capable and competent as men.
Agreed, but they shouldn't be given a free ride when it comes to interviews and even scholarships for flying training.

They can be encouraged by marketing at the flying school stage but to actually have a quota to meet when it comes to selecting candidates is outright discrimination.
