The UK’s first female Jumbo Jet pilot has retired at Gatwick.
64-year-old grandmother Yvonne Kershaw landed her last flight into the airport from Cancun yesterday.
She started flying the iconic plane in 1993 after learning in a small aircraft when she was 19.
More than 2,000 flights later, she says she’ll miss the role ‘enormously,’ saying the crew had become part of her extended family.
