Mother & daughter, father & son duos sound so unbelievable to me. How does the older pilot behave in a difficult situation? “Jamie! You’ve been doing this since you were two!”

Inspiring to all John, in a white male dominated profession (with all the fixes) in both the USA & Canada, not just women should be thrilled this is finally happening in 2019
