Zhuoga is one of China's first batch Tibetan stewardesses. She will appear on the plane of Air China's Southwest Company in early September as China's first female Tibetan airplane security guard. Pictured: the Tibetan girl Zhuoga who has a swarthy complexion by the sun was learning wrestling with male students.
Starting early this September, China's first batch of female stewards with "double identities", who are not only gentle and beautiful air hostesses but also "air policewomen" good at fighting, will formally show up on the flights of Air China Southwest Branch Co.
It is learnt that after passing a strict test, these air security guards will receive a two-and-a-half-month isolation training in Chengdu command institute under the Chinese People's Armed Police Force, where they can train physical abilities and learn skills of capturing and unarmed combat and how to handle emergency.
Air China revealed that in some respects, female security guards are more careful and not easy to be discovered on the flight. Once an emergency happens, their identities as stewards more likely ease others' alert, which is good for overpowering the criminals with a single step beyond their expectation.
