This week on For a Living, commercial airline pilot Danielle Voss takes us inside the cockpit of the Airbus A321 to learn about her life in the air. Only 6% of US commercial airline pilots are women and Danielle hopes that when people see her in the terminal and in the air, other women are inspired to pursue aviation. From her flight schedule to the dials she operates in the cockpit, we learn all about Danielle's work as a JetBlue pilot.
ABOUT SERIES
For A Living documents extraordinary women thriving within unique careers. From a mortician to a professional cuddler to a celebrity exorcist, we explore niche professions that women in the field are dominating.

I've worked as an FA but always wanted to be a pilot. Because of my eye sight issues I can not be a commercial pilot, but will get my private pilot license for fun. The airline industry is very interesting to me and ever changing. That is something to depend on.

@emirachelnatalie3397 5 месяцев назад

slayyy! I'm in a small town of 35,000 people but one flying school. I'm the only girl learning, there's one woman who just got her C-CAT license and another girl from about an hour away who comes in every now and then. I say I wanna quit sometimes but then I say "I gotta hold it down for the ladies and be a female pilot". Feels funny sometimes going in to the school at age 20, only girl, and being surrounded by men, I feel like I can't do it cause it's more primarily a "male dominated" job...so I def wanna keep going! They say I'm close to going solo so we'll see where that takes me! 30th Jan 2024

@briand7946 2 месяца назад

I think the best advice you can offer women (and anybody) starting in aviation is to forget about being a "woman" in aviation. I've come up with a bunch of women. There is no barriers they face that men dont. There is a lot of work and qualificaitons to get. Focus on those. If you get passed them all you'll be an airline pilot just like everyone else. It will only make it harder for you coming up, to add some kind of victum hood mentality to all the work that is required. A worker at the aiport cafe saying he has not met a women pilot before is not oppression or discrimination. People have different views and biases. People have questioned whether Im too old to get into this. Who cares what they think. You just get on with it. Im not going to start making youtube videos about over 50s first officers in aviation.

@echo-channel77 27 дней назад

"There is no barriers they face that men dont." exactly! Nobody wants to fly with someone who whines. It's also an integrity issue, anyone who steps in with that marxist bs "oppression" chip on their shoulder is not something you want to associate yourself with. They're the ones who have the WORST personalities and are completely unpairable.

You're ridiculous. Stop trying to force people to do jobs they aren't interested in. No one is saying women can't be pilot's. They have just as much opportunity as everyone else, in fact they probably will ignore your lack of skill and logic and hire you to make themselves look good

I love this -- let's not compromise on the merit though - that is bad for everyone on many levels. People need to be absolutely 100% confident that everyone flying them is there on merit and merit alone ..... personally I think women might make better pilots - let's not spoil that party by compromising on skills/abilities/temperament just to make the numbers look 'better' .....

“Female” pilots have been around for a long time now. Why can’t all pilots just be pilots?

@essel23fly 7 месяцев назад

Good for her and what she’s doing is all great, except the part where she mentions family life. She says why can’t men raise the kids instead of women. Because men don’t know anything about raising kids day to day. There’s a reason why divorce court sides with the mother when it comes to child custody. I think that’s the main reason why there’s less female pilots, you’ll be gone from your kids at least half the year.
