Delta celebrated International Girls in Aviation Day by carrying 120 girls from Salt Lake City to Houston for a tour of NASA.The girls, who came from area STEM schools , got to see women run all aspects of their flight, Delta said. The plane had an all-female pilot and flight crew, ramp agents and gate agents on the ground, and women in the control tower giving pilots instructions.The students toured NASA's Mission Control and ate lunch with astronaut and aerospace engineer Jeanette Epps.
"We know representation matters. At Delta, we believe you have to see it to be it," said Beth Poole, general manager of pilot development, who started the program in 2015."We're taking ownership to improve gender diversity by exposing girls at a young age and providing a pipeline so that 10 years from now, they will be the pilots in the Delta cockpit inspiring generations of women who follow."Delta says that 5% of its pilots are women and that 7.

Did it arrive on time?
How amazing! I wish there was this much female strength when I was little. I was often told female pilots were not as good as males. Of course I didn’t believe them, but they still blocked me. However, I do support progress and our daughters deserve a better future! WomensRights

Change the headline to ... “An all-male Delta team flew 120 boys to NASA to get them excited about aviation careers.” ALL HELL WOULD BREAK LOOSE FROM THE LIBERALS.
This is so dope!
Just like the FAKE to promote SEXISM. Someone decided to unlawfully selectively exclude males from this flight
