The Chief Pilot of my company I worked for, was well liked by everyone and he definitely became a mentor to me during my first few years in the Industry. It is only on reflection that I realise he was a mentor to me, I didn\u2019t know it at the time. Once I moved into the airlines at 22, I didn\u2019t have a mentor as such, but if I ever had any questions, I would just ask my work colleagues. I think it is great that mentorships are becoming common and I believe many will benefit from having one. In the last few years I\u2019ve met many amazing women pilots who I look up to and speak to for guidance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>How did you get interested in aviation?<\/strong> <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kathleen: I always liked planes and the idea of going on holidays. It wasn\u2019t until I was 15 that my dad casually mentioned that he once had his private pilot\u2019s licence. He flew before I was born and never had mentioned it previously.\u00a0\u00a0This completely fascinated me as I had never even thought about actually flying a plane. During this conversation with my Dad, he saw my excitement and asked if I wanted to do a trial flying lesson. I said yes and so he booked a lesson on the spot, for two weeks later. I still remember that flight so well, as if it happened yesterday. After I landed from that first flight I told my family, that\u2019s my life sorted. I wanted to be a Pilot.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Do you have any future aviation goals you hope to achieve?<\/strong> <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kathleen: I always told myself that I wanted to be a first officer on the 737 before I had kids. I achieved this goal in 2019 before having my first baby, in 2020. My next goal would be to fly the 787 as a First Officer, working my way up over time to becoming a Qantas Captain. Wherever I end up and on whatever aeroplane, it will all be a part of the journey. There is always so much to learn and new avenues to venture into, I am excited to see what happens.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"caret-color: #000000;\"><b>Do you live in base or commute?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kathleen: I am lucky that I both live and am based in Melbourne.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><span style=\"caret-color: #000000;\"><b>What have been some recent challenges you have faced?<\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kathleen: Recent challenges would definitely have to be due to COVID. Last year in 2020, Melbourne went through two lockdown periods of a few months each. I happened to have my first baby between those two lockdowns, on the 29th of May. Lots of pilots in Australia were being made redundant or stood down due to COVID. My husband Nick who is a second officer on the 787, was stood down and will remain stood down until International flying returns. Because of his job being on hold, I returned to domestic flying in November. My son was 5 months old. It was earlier than I originally anticipated but I was also very happy (and fortunate) to be able to return to the skies. Trying to navigate being back at work with a baby has been challenging yet also rewarding. We are lucky to have lots of family support and my husband is home full time at the moment.<\/span>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>What would you say to girls looking to become an airline pilot?<\/strong><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kathleen: I would tell them to go for it as it is a very rewarding career. Passion and drive will get you far in life.<\/span><\/p><p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">What do you feel is a benefit to being an ISA+21 member?<\/span><\/strong><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kathleen: This is a big, continuously growing group of women with a shared passion for flying. When I started out flying, I didn\u2019t know of, or meet another female pilot for a few years. Now, I have met hundreds of women pilots from all around the world. With a yearly conference we also get the opportunity to all catch up in person, share our stories and grow friendships.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1746c86 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1746c86\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-1b304ef\" data-id=\"1b304ef\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3b17fc8 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"3b17fc8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-4c6467f elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"4c6467f\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-e3aabd7\" data-id=\"e3aabd7\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7e7889f elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"7e7889f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/www.smh.com.au\/lifestyle\/life-and-relationships\/two-of-us-with-married-pilots-our-life-rule-is-don-t-fly-away-angry-20190401-p519la.html\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"242\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/isa21.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Image-5-e1610505891113-242x300.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-image-6732\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/isa21.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Image-5-e1610505891113-242x300.jpeg 242w, https:\/\/isa21.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Image-5-e1610505891113.jpeg 688w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 242px) 100vw, 242px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\"><\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-24cdad9\" data-id=\"24cdad9\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1b8801d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1b8801d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Kathleen Thorne and her husband Nick both fly for Qantas Airlines.<\/span> \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.smh.com.au\/lifestyle\/life-and-relationships\/two-of-us-with-married-pilots-our-life-rule-is-don-t-fly-away-angry-20190401-p519la.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read about their advice to other aviation couples to never &#8220;fly away angry&#8221;
