All-Female Flight Crew

Nigeria's airline Aero made history by the first all-female flight crew in Nigeria. Aero is leading the way for development in airlines by being the first to set out a group of women. This achievement is paving the way for other airlines throughout Nigeria. Harold Demuren, Director-General of the NCAA, challenged other airlines in Nigeria to follow Aero's lead, stressing that the development was good for teh nation's aviation. Aero has been in operation for 50 years, and they plan to continue being the leader in the industry and compete with the best in the world.



This article relates to what we have been learing in class because it focuses on the status of women in Nigeria. The all-female flight crew addresses the fact that achieving this kind of success is difficult for women in their country. The cleavages between male and female are improving. Women, including a couple of the ones in this flight crew, attend universities in Nigeria.
