It's 2018 and guess what, folks? Women are not only driving cars these days, they're even flying planes!
As remarkable as that fact may seem to some, it no doubt gets very, very tiresome if you're a female pilot who has to constantly deal with snide comments and jibes from male passengers.
However, pilot Charlotte Knowlson has both the right attitude and the right response to those who find it necessary to comment on her gender and her profession, and her tweet about it has gone viral.
See it below:
Had such a lovely day flying with an ðŸ'Œ crew.
Baffled as to why 2 male pax felt that these comments were nescesarry.
‘I wont make any jokes about female drivers then’
‘Are you the pilot? If I’d know that I wouldnt have got on’
Fact is, I can fly an £80m jet, you can’t.
