Emily Howell Warner

Another interesting fact…On January 29, 1973, Emily Warner sat across from the Vice President of Frontier Airlines at the close of a job interview. He asked her what she was going to wear, as there were no women airline pilot uniforms. Warner breathed a sigh of relief, now knowing that the interview was a success. In that moment, Warner became the first American woman to be hired as part of the permanent flight crew by a U.S. airline. (Courtesy AirandSpace.si.edu)
