More quotes by Cornelia Fort
Any girl who has flown at all grows used to the prejudice of most men pilots who will trot out any number of reasons why women can't possibly be good pilots. . . . The only way to show the disbelievers, the snickering hangar pilots, is to show them.
Cornelia Fort
I am grateful that my one talent, flying, was useful to my country.
