GLOBALink | Female captain in China pursues dream in sky

For a long time, pilots were mainly men, but these days female pilots are not uncommon in China. Luo Danyi, a post-90s captain with China's Xiamen Air, is one of the Chinese women pursuing dreams up in the sky. #GLOBALink

Great heros in the skies. As good if not better than their male counterparts.

I THINK THE JOB OF AIRLINE PILOT IS IDEAL FOR WOMEN - BECAUSE WOMEN HAVE A NATURAL CALMNESS - THIS GIVES THEM A POSITIVE ADVANTAGE OVER MALES

Last year exhibition in Austria Innsbruck, Chinese woman captain flew their "Fat Lady" (Xi'an 20?)there.

Passenger plane=Asset=income. Fighter jet=Liability (maintenance)= expenses.

Good job to women. Like to see more from ethnic minorities do great things in China and the world.

I have trained hundreds of Chinese pilots for BUAA that went to Xiamen airlines, Air China Air, Air China cargo, Shenzhen airlines

wow. that is a stressful job for a female pilot. It's hard for her to have a family as she needs to constantly away from home flying around.
