Women have not just broken into fields once dominated by men but are excelling in it consistently.

On the International Women's Day an all-women team handled Air Traffic operations at the country's busiest Indira Gandhi International Airport in the national capital.

The women team manned the entire ATC of Delhi Flight Information Region.

It includes control tower, apparel control and en-route control.

The ATC tower at Delhi airport is capable of handling more than 1,200 flights per day with a peak hour handling capacity of 75 flights.
