Margaret is the only female flier in our flying club, and she flies no less efficiently than any male member.
A ‘high-flier’ or ‘high-flyer’ is a person who has hidden abilities and has achieved success faster than others, such as the young men who designed ‘Facebook’ and others who did such wonderful things that shot them up to fame in a short period of time.
The in-flight crew face great challenge in dealing with nervous fliers, especially when the weather is bad and there are too many turbulences; therefore, to educated the general public, some airlines conduct special programmes that educate or familiarise nervous fliers how to be cool on a flight.
