Atlantic Southeast Airlines Makes History!

A first in aviation history happened on February 12, 2009-the first all female African-American crew to fly together in the airline industry. This was confirmed by the Organization of Black American Pilots. Pictured above is Captain Rachelle Jones, First Officer Stephanie Grant, and Flight Attendants Diana Galloway and Robin Rodgers.

Rachelle also has the distinction of being only one of five African-American female Captains in the airline industry today.

What a great way to mark African American History Month! Congratulations!
