Barbara Harmer at British Airways. The first female Concorde airline pilot. She became F/O on Concorde in 1993. After the end-of-service, she continued to fly 777s with BA. . B\xe9atrice Valle at Air France. After a long career as a pilot, she finally was selected for Concorde... and then the Paris crash happened. But she persisted, and in the end she did 35 return flights CDG-JFK before the final end-of-service. She then became captain on 747s. Apart from Jacqueline Auriol , well-known French 'aviatrice' and test pilot, who flew once on the Concorde prototype, I do not know of anybody else. And no, there is no record of any female F/Es.

Barbara Harmer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia After she eventually left the Concorde fleet, Barbara became Captain Harmer, flying the Boeing 777 for BA. Oops ChristiaanJ, never knew about B\xe9atrice Valle, salutations to her also. Dude |

Barbara Harmer
Barbara was a truly lovely lady and will be sorely missed by all of us that had the honour to know her. She was such an unassuming lady and seemed to wonder what all the fuss was when the media followed her around in her early days on the fleet.
With greatest respect M2Dude |

Very sad news indeed. An inspirational lady that I never had the pleasure to meet. Should you wish to pay your condolences
