TORONTO For the first time in the 30-year history of the First Nations Technical Institute s aviation program, a flight training crew is all female. Rainbow Ford, who had her commercial flight test in December, told CTV s Your Morning she didn t think about the significance of having both a female instructor and examiner until a few days before her exam. I don t think it s ever happened before and at the time I was like, I wonder if this has ever happened like ever in the country, because it s pretty different, Ford explained in an interview on Wednesday. We re one of the only First Nations flight schools so it’s definitely a first for our school and I thought that was so cool, she added.
