@@BreaMichelle3 Value for someone's life is not something you'll ever learn which is why you will never be rid of the indelible blood-guilt come upon you.
This is a story of hope, inspiration and truly believing that you can do anything you put your mind to. I couldn't take my eyes off of this interview for a second. Thank you Captain Tammie Jo Shults.
Had to pause the vid to say..this woman’s clarity and inner beauty shows God is within her🌹 Thank you God for such a beautiful creation...and may your love bring her overwhelming joy in due season.
Still seeing this discrimination today. Female captain recently won a discrimination lawsuit in Federal Court against Delta, was initially retaliated against her for reporting safety concerns. Federal judge was particularly harsh in the ruling against Delta. The Captain was also in graduate school earning her PhD in aviation safety.
Absolutely agree. I just finished reading and I feel inspired and in awe (though she is incredibly humble), and I appreciate her message of resilience.
Well done for showing the strength and courage to push against all the barriers and bullies along the way. You have helped both female aviators and all others who want to pursue careers they love irrespective of what the bullies think. Keep getting your story out there to inspire another generation.
My next stop is buying her book. What an interview. I sent it to my 13 year old daughter who is getting ready to start high school in the fall. She may not appreciate this wisdom right now but I want her to see what a woman of greatness has to say. ❤ from Pensacola.
Thank you for your service ,the right people in the right place at the right time .Never give up Never surrender Miss you are an inspiration for people.
She basically exercises Arnold Schwarzenegger's life philosophy: You want to achieve something, then work hard towards it; don't let anybody drag you down.
The intense, intense irony is that none of the fragile manbabies who put this woman down throughout her life have even half the balls that she does. The fact that she has so much humility in the face of having to put up with constant misogyny just makes their actions even more disgusting.
Absolutely fantastic woman. Such an inspiration in every regard. Her intelligence, her faith and her dedication. She went into aviation in a male dominated world with much working against her and she turned it all into a positive for herself and her career. Things have changed both with the military and the airlines now given their focus on gender, racial diversity and equality. The path has been made much less restrictive for women and people of color. I saw it when I flew for the airlines in how they would focus harder on getting those people through their training. Some male pilots, because of the macho thing, can have a tendency to take unnecessary and potentially dangerous risks. The women pilots I flew with never had that problem- they were always by the book. There were a few women pilots that bragged and looked at themselves as being a hero to all women because they had become airline pilots. Those were the ones that disgusted me. Airline unions also have their special groups dedicated solely to women pilots and pilots of color. To me that's divisive, unnecessary and contradicts the entire concept of equality.
Interesting that her first officer was flying the plane that day and she continued to have him fly while she communicated with air traffic control. This is in direct contrast to Sully, Who took back control from Jeff Skiles who was the pilot in charge that day.
54fast b in both cases the first officers were “piloting” the planes. Right seat. Not the pilots themselves in the left seat. In her case, she continued to have her first officer fly the plane while she handled radio communications. With Sully, he said “my plane” and took over as both pilot and communicating with ATC. My point is I wonder why she didn’t do the same thing or why sully didn’t let Jeff continue to fly? Also, it’s clear that although everyone is a hero, it seem only she and sully got book deals. Just my thoughts 💭.
What matters is she and FO Ellisor got the rest of the people on the ground alive and with few injuries. There were some parts of the flight that she flew...he didn’t fly the entire time.
@@ReineDeLaSeine14 Indeed, that is the big picture for sure. It is strange though, that in both cases the first officers, who played critical roles, are not at the forefront of the media attention.
LinYouToo, There were justifications in each of these instances. Both pilots in SWA 1380 had deep experience with the plane. Not sure if policy required the left seat to land the plane, but Tammy Jo did, and she of course continues to affirm the team effort involved. With US Air 1549, it was different. That flight was first officer Skyles (a very experienced 737 pilot), very first flight with passengers in the Airbus though both pilots had equal time in commercial jets. Because of this, Sullenberger took control after the bird strikes for obvious reasons...he had the deep experience with the Airbus, not Skyles.
My brother had a successful business, trusted and hired women and that was back in the day when women were turned down for positions on a regular basis with no explanation.
I have so much respect for the professionalism of this woman but I cannot stand her attributing the outcome to a divine power. It was her professionalism, not God. Credit where credit is due!
Yes but for her, looks like her strength is deeply rooted with God & Family. I was also surprised initially, but when she explained the struggles she had gone through to earn her wing in the Navy, it makes sense
cabc74 I see her faith not so much as relinquishing control, responsibility, or credit over to God, but rather her faith created in her the innate strength, stability, focus, and total confidence in her own abilities that permeates every aspect of who she is. I think she’s beyond remarkable; she’s an inspiration.
@@BrigidSamhain This woman has persevered to help shatter a glass ceiling, and dispel myths that women are too emotional, and don't perform well under pressure, and YOUR'E worried about her makeup? The fact that both you, and she, THINK she NEEDS to be made up, demonstrates another glass ceiling that should be shattered.
@@carlwilliams6977 You misconstrue my meaning. I agree she is an icon, great example for women. I am fighting against blatant systemic misogyny right now if you only knew. One fact here, and listen carefully, certain complexions do not suit heavy foundation. She deserves better. Is wishing a great icon for women's rights better quality beauty care such a bad thing? Would you really deprive people of their right to make an observation meant only to improve the situation? If you cannot grasp my meaning I apologize. I have failed to convey in concise wording my true meaning. She is an American Icon . She is in the public eye. She deserves better. That's all. Nothing more.
@@BrigidSamhain okay Brigid, if that's where you're coming from I apologize. In the scope of things, your comment simply seemed very shallow. I myself resisted the temptation to comment on her relience on scripture, and my disappointment that she said she was thinking about meeting her maker immediately after the explosion. In fact, she seems like a pretty competent aviator, so I question that's actually the way it went down (no pun intended😊). I would hope she would reserve those thoughts for when she had done all she could do, and was spiraling into the ground! After all.. the good Lord helps those who help themselves right? Anyway I digress! Perhaps we can discuss the multi-billion dollar fashion and cosmetic industry that relies on misogyny (sometimes self-inflicted) in another thread. Peace!
America's great because of people like Tammy Jo
@fuglyucker &_Brian too :
America is great because of Trump as President.. or, or
America is crap because of Trump as President...!!
Take your pick..

Captain Tammy Jo Shults, you are a wonderful woman and a terrific human being. Thank you.
If you like this interview, read her book... it's fantastic.
100% agree.

Such an amazing humble woman.
Thats what real feminism looks like. A real woman of faith.
Two years since, 1380's faith filled landing, and Capt Shults' interview, it's ALL still relevant.
I wonder if those navy officers who treated her unfairly feel about her now.
I bet every last one of them feel really stupid now!
@@thesneakyzephyr4531 They are probably dead.

This lady is a BOSS!!!
She wrote a whole book called “Nerves of Steel.” Great book. #SouthwestLuv

What an absolutely lovely lady, and so inspiring.
Great woman and professional, she managed to become fighter pilot , not just a pilot, omg!
Life can be unfair, but it’s how you deal with it… amazing woman.
My God, what an impressive woman. Gracious, thoughtful, clear, composed, accomplished, humble, and strong as spring steel.
I could listen to her for hours.

That was her job to stay calm, she was a professional. Just like a Dr. during surgery
I noticed something, all of the Pilots involved in famous emergency landings were Seasoned veterans
Where’s the movie ???
Thank God she is a praying woman ❤️
The good news......we are going to land.
The bad news .........it’s Philly.
Hehehe.......kidding !
You did everything humanly possible.
This is a God fearing Amazing woman i love her awesome attitude ❤ shes Awesome 👍 God Bless her in Jesus name Amen 🙏
Way to hang in there. There are fools in every line of work. Don't let them stop. The fear is in THEM
a CLASS ACT!!
Go navy! US naval aviation is - and always has been - a leader in innovation and encouraging ALL people to be their best. Yes sir. Great story.
She was a lil too calm o_O
Johnny Cash said it too, get rhythm...when you get the blues.
And she's a believer. My God this is great!!
amazing lady top gun x
An abundance of Godly Wisdom from a fine young lady!
