FEMALE AIR FORCE PILOT

This book is the autobiographical account of a woman officer and pilot in the French army. Through fascinating anecdotes, Barbara Brunet-Gaignard recounts the daily life of military crews responsible for transporting passengers on all continents. Year after year, she flies ever bigger planes until she becomes captain on Airbus A-310... Bosnia, Afghanistan, Haiti. As current events unfold, her missions take her all over the world where the French presence is needed. This is the vision of a woman, wife and mother, for whom this atypical life is an assumed choice. Through her testimony, Barbara Brunet-Gaignard hopes to demonstrate that women have their place in our armies and that they are perfectly effective.
