If you’ve flown a couple of times you’ve done this at least once.

How many female pilots do you think there are.

So you don't fly much, I take it.

I've flown multiple times with female helicopter pilots. Two in particular were a couple of the better pilots I have flown with. Both ex-military, pretty sure one plays for the other team so maybe that one doesn't count .

On a NW 737 long ago I noticed that the blond first offier was really cute. She looked barely out of high school.

I've done it a few times. Really didn't think much about it.

Would you get on a plane with a female pilot? I sure as hell wouldn’t


So you’d pay for a flight, do the boarding process, tell the flight attendant, “excuse me, can you move? I need to see the gender of the pilot…ohhhpp! What’s that? A female? Im sorry, im afraid i can’t board this aircraft.” Then go pay for a room, roll the dice the next day, spend more and…fingers crossed…the pilot has a dick!

I just wonder if all the other Chad, 42, from Franklin would follow suit or at the very least give you a round of applause

I had an all female fight deck crew on a BA flight from London to Austin on a 747 before they phased the 747 out. No problems at all.
A 747 captain has been flying for years.

You should do some research on Southwest Flight 1380. You’ll easy find videos of her male first officer talking about how well she handled the emergency.

You obviously didn’t because what you posted was grossly inaccurate.

The female pilot was named on 4 of the 6 causes listed and if you watched the Mayday show about the incident you would know that the show inclined that the female pilot's mistakes were worse than the male pilot.

Yes, flew into Eagle county airport in Colorado last year in a blizzard. Once we started to descend you could not see anything but white. While sitting there I told my wife the pilot of this thing had balls of steel...after some tight maneuvering we landed and were coming down the isle to exit. The captain and the first office were both females. She was greeting all of the exiting passengers and I fist bumped her and told her she was a bad-arse.

As crazy as Eagle airport is Aspen is much worse. I’ve taken some white knuckles into that airport. When conditions in Aspen are too bad they divert to Eagle.

There is a high probability that the air force pushed her through training because she had a vagina even if she was shitty in the cockpit and there's a 100% probability that her resume got moved to the top of the stack because she has a vagina.

I listed the causes straight from the report on page 2.

1. the flight crew's failure to properly configure and verify the flight management computer for the profile approach

2. the captain's failure to communicate his intentions to the first officer once it became apparent the vertical profile was not captured

3. the flight crew's expectation that they would break out of cloud at 1,000 feet [300 m] above ground level [due to incomplete weather information]

4. the first officer's failure to make the required minimums callouts

5. the captain's performance deficiencies, likely due to factors including, but not limited to, fatigue, distraction, or confusion, consistent with performance deficiencies exhibited during training

6. the first officer's fatigue due to acute sleep loss resulting from her ineffective off-duty time management[7][1][22][23]
