"You mean to tell me this plane is being piloted by a woman?"asked an alarmed passenger to a stewardess." "Yes, sir," replied the stewardess. "So is the co-pilot, Miss Jane Understudy. So also are the radio operator and the navigator, they are all women in command." "I must see this for myself," said the passenger. "Please take me to the cockpit." "We don't call it that any more, sir," replied the stewardess. |
