- This week on For a Living, commercial airline pilot Danielle Voss takes us inside the cockpit of the Airbus A321 to learn about her life in the air. Only 6% of US commercial airline pilots are women and Danielle hopes that when people see her in the terminal and in the air, other women are inspired to pursue aviation. From her flight schedule to the dials she operates in the cockpit, we learn all about Danielle's work as a JetBlue pilot.
ABOUT SERIES

‘Unmanned flight’ !!! I love it. Great job Danielle and 6%ers
I fly smaller private jets and there are lots women pilots .My son just finished flight school and hes a flight instructor he said about a 1/3 of the people instructs are females. So it is growing .
Thanks for sharing... pardon me,honestly i must say you are gorgeous and charming...I went through your profile and i found you so interesting and worthy talking to. Your beauty is engaging and ravishing still your smile is captivating and enchanting. I would love we converse more better perhaps be of a better friends..I tried adding you but it wasn't responding, kindly add me up if you dont mind.
Hi, do you feel like your journey as a pilot was worth it?
Amazing! She’s so well spoken.
She clearly wasn't paying attention in "Captain Mumbling Class"
@@AVA-hu4yf THIS MADE ME GIGGLE
Thank you creating this! It’s super inspirational to see this!
It's my dream job.....and I hope one day I will definitely be a good pilot❤
Such an inspiration as I work on my Commercial Pilot Certificate!🤩
youre not military no way
whats the cost .my daughter wants to become a pilot
🎉❤
Shout out to the BOS bag tag!!! I’m in Boston ❤ Also, this is my dream job. Almost went to college for it
Unmanned flight wow I've never heard that and never saw a female pilot wowwwww. I'm a man and just love seeing this and women are so powerful we should see more serious women going into this profession and making a difference. Thanks for such safe flights to all captians man or woman
When you say "powerful" and "serious", you mean to say masculine.
@JizzSock_ take it however, it's just a beautiful thing seeing a female pilot, most people haven't seen a female pilot in their lives
@@Cinemachoicefilms lol in US actually it is a shameful thing India had more than 12 percent of women pilots while we had just 5 percent when comes to our fleet is very less
It’s good to see women pilots for major airlines flights domestically and internationally! I also like seeing them wear professional suits and ties like men
Thank u for the motivation I've been thinking about going to finish my piloting am a 36 year old female thank u very much and fly safe
Thank you for sharing our industry!! Yes, at my former career airline I few with a couple of our pilots who are ladies! A couple Captains who are ladies and a First Officer who is a lady as well.😊 Thatvis good your husband is a pilot as well. Yes, he understands work schedules as well. Well, Happy New Years 🥂 to you and your husband. Continued success to you flying.😊😊
She's so smart and beautiful ❤
Awesome video! Inspirational.
When people ask her whether she's a flight attendant or a gate agent, she should say guess... if you're right, I'll give you $50, but if you're wrong, you owe me $50... she can make some additional cash!! 😋😋
Iam going to be an Airline pilot.
Please wish me luck😊😊😊
You gave me really motivation ma'am❤
Encouraged me to keep studying and not give up
Thank you for sharing. I’m in my sophomore year of college going to school for aviation science with a concentration in flight education. I really feel like I struggle with my private license. I want to work for Delta
Thanks for sharing. Your video post is really inspiring and maybe it will inspire my daughters and other young women to follow the dream. It is an awesome career opportunity for those have the passion to fly an airplane ✈️.
Lovely Pilot awesome carreer ❤
Awesome! I don't think I'll ever forget the first time I flew with a female pilot! Such an inspiration!
Yes I love the support for my female pilots! Wanting to get my private pilot license one day!
slayyy! I'm in a small town of 35,000 people but one flying school. I'm the only girl learning, there's one woman who just got her C-CAT license and another girl from about an hour away who comes in every now and then. I say I wanna quit sometimes but then I say "I gotta hold it down for the ladies and be a female pilot". Feels funny sometimes going in to the school at age 20, only girl, and being surrounded by men, I feel like I can't do it cause it's more primarily a "male dominated" job...so I def wanna keep going! They say I'm close to going solo so we'll see where that takes me!

The days of women not occupying the seats in the flightdeck are over. Congrats Danielle on following your dream, and for setting an example for young women and girls to follow. Here's to growing that 6%!
❤ wow
I see a lot of women pilots in Canada, I wonder if that’s just a weird coincidence or if we actually have a lot more here
Give me some motivational quotes because I chose my future career as a pilot I wanted to fly since I was rlly young and I'm interested in aircrafts
I love this -- let's not compromise on the merit though - that is bad for everyone on many levels. People need to be absolutely 100% confident that everyone flying them is there on merit and merit alone ..... personally I think women might make better pilots - let's not spoil that party by compromising on skills/abilities/temperament just to make the numbers look 'better' .....
I think the best advice you can offer women (and anybody) starting in aviation is to forget about being a "woman" in aviation. I've come up with a bunch of women. There is no barriers they face that men dont. There is a lot of work and qualificaitons to get. Focus on those. If you get passed them all you'll be an airline pilot just like everyone else. It will only make it harder for you coming up, to add some kind of victum hood mentality to all the work that is required. A worker at the aiport cafe saying he has not met a women pilot before is not oppression or discrimination. People have different views and biases. People have questioned whether Im too old to get into this. Who cares what they think. You just get on with it. Im not going to start making youtube videos about over 50s first officers in aviation.
Thank you for doing this segment! We NEED more women pilots!
No we dont. We need better pilots regardless of gender.
Youre gonna get us killed you cant even drive a stick shift
You're ridiculous. Stop trying to force people to do jobs they aren't interested in. No one is saying women can't be pilot's. They have just as much opportunity as everyone else, in fact they probably will ignore your lack of skill and logic and hire you to make themselves look good
@@paltomori6025facts
No we don’t
Out of curiosity, is the shirt and tie always mandatory for female pilots or is there another option?
it looks awesome on women ngl, look at my prp for instance lol
YOU GO GIRL!!
I think that the parking is mostly automated somehow

Interesting but the background music is annoying AH.
Very nice female pilot good pilot
Blue ram to jetblue 4122, cleared for takeoff: IM SORRY WHAT?! WAS?! THAT?! the typicall way of giving a "takeoff clearence" to an aircraft would be like this: (this example is from LA, and features an ATLAS AIR Boeing 747 | "Giant 4122 Heavy runway 24L, RNAV to del ray cleared for takeoff:
Hey just so you know nobody flies with their blazer on !

Really happy for her but disappointed on her flippant/uneducated remark on why women don’t feel they can pursue careers as pilots. Like listening to Oprah as to why people are suffering.
"I’m One of Them | For a Living" well shiii* yeah id hope they were paying you.
Womens soccer lost 29 to zero against men.......lol
What does soccer have to do with flying lol😂
Good for her and what she’s doing is all great, except the part where she mentions family life. She says why can’t men raise the kids instead of women. Because men don’t know anything about raising kids day to day. There’s a reason why divorce court sides with the mother when it comes to child custody. I think that’s the main reason why there’s less female pilots, you’ll be gone from your kids at least half the year.
I’m sorry, but this is the dumbest thing I’ve seen today. If you’re that incompetent in raising children, speak for yourself. 🤦♂️
@@quesadilla9957 For real!! 😂😂
Not all women want to have children either, we're not livestock or incubators. Many men don't have children and no one bothers them about it. It should be the same for women.
Check your sexism.
Saying men don't know anything about raising kids is a lot like saying women don't know anything about flying airplanes.
I wouldn't feel safe if a women drives my plane that's a realy scary experience
I was on a Delta A350 for 15hrs with a female Captain. It makes no difference.
LOL, if the plane that I am going in had a female pilot, I would never go in that plane in the first place 😂
Why not😂
Very manly.🤢
I wish I was a woman pilot but I’m medically disqualified due to ADHD 🥲
