All-female flight crew makes history
AMMAN – Royal Jordanian flight number 132 recorded a first for Jordanian and aviation history when it landed here this week.
Back from Athens, the plane flew with an all-women cockpit and cabin crew.
Since the establishment of RJ, two other women were awarded the same rank and flew, but with men pilots.
The plane was led by Captain Carol Rabadi and co-pilot Hadeel Khamash.
Captain Rabadi said her first flight as captain, together with co-pilot Khamash, would be a landmark in her life and the airline’s history where women play a major role.
She praised the support and training RJ gives its women employees who work in all departments, including the operational and engineering sectors.
She also praised her colleagues’ permanent encouragement during her training.
