WP14: Spoiler alert: Erika Armstrong’s memoir A Chick in the Cockpit is not just about her aviation journey, it’s really about domestic abuse, and about how domestic abuse took her aviation career away from her

In this excerpt from my interview with Erika Armstrong, author of A Chick in the Cockpit: My Life Up in the Air, she talks about how, since publishing the book, she’s been blown away by the number of women who have reached out to her with their own experiences of domestic abuse. If you need help, contact the National Domestic Abuse Hotline 800-799-7233, or to connect with Erika, you can find her everywhere @AChickintheCockpit.
