Meryl Jan Getline (born June 1953) is an American pilot, author, and columnist. ==Biography== Born in Dayton, Ohio, Getline grew up in San Diego, California. She first became interested in flying while in college, and persisted despite a bout of airsickness during her first flying lesson. She attempted to join the military and become a pilot there, but circumstances constrained her to work mostly in air traffic control. Her first position as an airline pilot was with a California-based commuter airline, during which time she earned a type rating on the McDonnell Douglas DC-10. It is possible she was the first American woman to do this. She later joined regional airline Wien Air Alaska. In 1985, she was hired by United Airlines, during a pilot's strike action. In 2006, she retired eight years early from the company. Getline holds a wide variety of airman certificates, including Airline Transport Pilot License (ATP), AMEL, commercial pilot, Airplane Single Engine Land (ASEL), rotorcraft, control tower operator, flight engineer, and ground instructor, as well as type ratings for the Airbus A320, Boeing 727, Boeing 737, Boeing 777, Cessna Citation, and McDonnell Douglas DC-10. She currently resides in Elizabeth, Colorado. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Meryl Getline」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
