75 years old (Born on August 15, 1949)
Happy Birthday, Beverly Burns! You soared into history as the first female pilot to command a Boeing 747 jet—taking off from Newark and gracefully touching down in Los Angeles. Clearly, you knew how to make an entrance (and exit) long before it was cool!Your groundbreaking flight paved the runway for countless women pilots who followed your trailblazing path. Today we celebrate not just another year of altitude gained but also your timeless legacy that continues inspiring generations worldwide. May this birthday bring clear skies ahead—and may all turbulence be limited strictly to cake frosting mishaps.
Keep flying high!
