Brilliant pilot! And she signed my Tee Shirt at WAG 2009 at Silverstone.! Although the competition was marred by an accident, the affair was handled by the BAA and the Silverstone team with a sympathetic and professional manner. The performance of the competitoin pilots was exceptional! I am priveledged to have been a 'mere helper in the WAG organisation!
Well, I'm afraid your son won't be spoilt for choice! During WW2 it was a different story - whole women-only regiment (the Night Witches) and two more regiments with female pilots.
and if you like extremes, then air acrobatic is for you.Or if you are a calm person, then you'll enjoy gliding on a glider (airframe?). As Vladimir Vladimirovich (Putin) said when he was given a ride on TU-160:"It's like I've been to paradise!"
Journalist: What brings a woman, and you personally, to aviation? And is it true, that once you started profession of pilot, you'll never quit?
S.K.: I came to aviation by chance. I just wanted to jump with parachute, just wanted to experince that fear when you stand at open door of a plane. That's why I signed up for avia-sport, so it's my destiny which brought me here. As for aviation, yes, if you ever flew once yourself or were flown the way you've enjoyed, if you like extremes
Journalist:Svetlana, when they show total score and men-pilots see you've won, what is their reaction?
S.K.: A painful one. But you'd better ask them. It happened some years ago when Sergei Rahmanin and I were winning the champioship. We flew (as everywhere I suppose) on qualifications, starting from bottom place up, and in the end Sergei came first and I came second on total score.
It was about a year later when he confessed that so many men from different countries used to
come up to him, and everybody used to say:"Don't you dare to lose! Don't you dare!" Sergei said they were even interrupting him getting ready, but all the men felt obliged to say:"Don't you dare to give away our men's cup!"
And there was one more funny story. The French team's coach asked:"So if a woman becomes an absolute (all-round?) champion, will she take away OUR cup?" One of our team answered:"Yes, of course, why not? It's the absolute champion's cup, not just men's cup."

Dear All,
I have some questions about flying?
(1) Why do we love flying?
(2) Why do some females want to be pilots instead of flight attendents?
(3) Why majority of pilots are male instead of females?
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE for your creative ideas and brainstorm!!! :)

The French coach said:"But women have their own cup!" And our guy answered:"Don't you worry, in this case this woman will give women's cup to us men!"
So this probably upset every guy badly, and they all were worried about this."
