Female pilot lifestyle
Hello guys,
How do you find being a pilot as a female? How do you manage your time? Is it easy to have kids and be a mom? What happens when you get pregnant? All those questions for the future
Thank you

Hello
I can't answer for the others but the one I know for sure is you can't fly once you know you're pregnant.
My stewardess cousin had to stop as soon as she knew. Then her airline gave her some desk work to do for some months before she completely stopped and gave birth.
For the rest, I know a couple pilot/atc, they had 3 children who all turned out fine (and they're a happy family to this day) so it's probably very possible to have a family life with this kind of job. I cannot give you any details though.
