India's first lady pilot
I always see men sitting in the cockpit of a plane. But air hostess jobs are only for ladies. But I was wondering if there are lady pilots too?
Now there are. But I wanted to know about the first Indian lady pilot.
It was in the year 1936 , one lady entered the cockpit of plane and made history as India's first lady pilot.
She was Sarla Thakral .
She was only 21 year old , when she achieved that feat.
Her husband P . D. Sharma was the initiator behind that . But she widowed at the age 24. Then she abandoned her plans to become a commercial pilot.
