This is a Youtube video showing four female Pakistani pilots getting their wings. Because Pakistan is a Muslim country, it's interesting - sad and depressing at times - to read the "Members comments" to this video at Youtube. This world isn't going to get anywhere with 1/2 the population confined to their homes by the other half - which is what fundamental Muslims want. (And fundamentalist Christians as well, seems like! But at least they don't go around murdering people who dare to teach women how to read...)
These women --Saba Khan, Nadia Gul, Mariam Khalil and Saira Batool -- are heroines - it took great courage for them to become pilots...and it will take great courage for them to continue to be pilots. Let's not forget that even the WASP found some of their planes sabotaged during WWII because the women were putting men out of jobs...
