FLIGHT

by Janet Spencer

On May 15, 1930 Ellen Church became the first female flight attendant. Previously, the co-pilot or ‘cabin boys’ were responsible for serving passengers. Come along with Tidbits as we take to the skies! ELLEN CHURCH • Ellen Church was a trained pilot, and in 1930 she applied for a job as a pilot. She was turned down, but when they found out she was also a nurse, she was hired to serve as a stewardess because it was thought that having a nurse aboard would reassure passengers. At first, all stewardesses were nurses. Ellen’s career as a stewardess was cut short when she was injured in a car accident after just 18 months. She was a nurse for the rest of her life. FLIGHT FACTS • Female flight attendants still outnumber male flight attendants by a margin of 6 to 1. • About 10% of commercial pilots are female. • In 1970, 1% of business travelers were female. By 2000, 51% were female. • About 650 million people travel on U.S. airlines annually and there are over 100,000 flight attendants to serve them. • A typical flight attendant will serve on three flights in a single work day. Each craft holds about 270 people. That’s over 800 passengers to deal with every single day. Turn the page for more!
