Lines: 12 Good grief! Let's not start a flap over women aircrews. Women have been flying planes nearly as long as men. I suspect that they got started soon after the Wright brothers. There were substantial numbers of women flying planes during WWII. They ferried all sorts of aircraft from here to the European theater during that altercation. I have no problem at all with women pilots, in fact, I suspect they would do a better job. T. C. Wheeler
