Ups and downs of a pilot's job

The profession of a pilot, once inaccessible for women, is becoming more and more popular among them. Girls who fall in love with the sky enter flying schools regardless of the imminent hardships and busy schedules. In a new RT Documentary film, several young women, students and seasoned professionals in aerobatics and civil aviation talk about their journey to becoming professionals. Even being on the brink or fuelling a plane in a 30-degree frost didn't stop them from the profession.

So how did they get to where they are?
