says:The way Capt Deb Laurie was treated by the misogynistic Reg Ansett was beyond the pale, & would’ve broken a less strong person.
He even called his female cabin crew ‘old boilers’, such was his manner.
Deb rose above all his dislike, & certainly paved the way for female pilots’ of the future.
They owe much to her.
