Southwest Airlines Captain Follows Deacon's Call
January 9, 2019
Captain Rebecca Sparks radiates the spirit of her great-grandparents, who were some of the original 19th-century settlers of the Texas Panhandle. One of Southwest Airlines' first female pilots, Sparks began her journey in high school to the captain's seat of a 737 and, by a more circuitous route, she was ordained a deacon in June 2018.
