More about Jane:
After experiencing some difficult life challenges, Jane's decision to pursue a career change from a twenty-year flight attendant to take flying lessons during what could be called a mid-life crisis (divorce, temporary job loss) was met with barriers at every stage. In spite of hearing, "You're too old," or "No one is hiring," Jane was determined to achieve her dream, eventually ending her almost 44-year career with Continental/United as a Boeing 737 Captain. Her story will inspire those who have experienced the highs and lows of life's trials, particularly a career in the aviation industry. With stories to tell along the way, it began with a spontaneous trip to Los Angeles for an interview as a 'hostess' in 1969, and ended with a smooth landing in Houston with fire trucks on each side of the aircraft spraying the traditional water cannon salute to a retiring captain.
