When the jumbo jet on its way to Charles de Gaulle got up in the air, the loudspeaker came on: This is your captail Emilia Rodriguez speaking. We are cruising and 35,000 feet, … yaddayaddayadda.

When the announcement was finished, a woman calls the flight attendant over and asks, Is it really true that this plane is being flown by a woman?

Yes, says the attendant, Captain Rodriguez is a woman.

How wondful! exclaims the passenger, may I go up into the cockpit and congratulate her?

I think I can arrange that, replies the attendant, and BTW, you might also like to know that the co-pilot AND the navigator are women, too.

Oh, this is exciting, gushes the passenger, Id like to go and congratulate them all!

Well, you may certainly do that. In fact, youll be interested Im sure to know that only women make up the entire crew of this flight.

This is the proudest day of my life, continues the passenger, Ive just got to go to the cockpit and express my admiration.

One more thing you might like to know, adds the attendant, we dont call it the cockpit any more!
