India's first three women fighter pilots

The Indian Air Force inducted its first batch of women pilots into its fighter squadron on Saturday: Avani Chaturvedi, Mohana Singh and Bhawana Kanth. All of them cleared the first stage of training and have about 150 hours of flying. They will now go to Bidar in Karnataka for their stage-III training on the Advanced Jet Fighter – the British-built Hawk for six months before they are ready to fly supersonic warplanes.
