Russia’s President Vladimir Putin said that his flight time since 2012 has totaled several months. This reported by TASS.

"From 2012 to present, if you count how much time I was in the air - it is several months all together," Putin said at his annual televised Q&A session when answering questions from female students of the Krasnodar High military aviation school for pilots.

When one of the girls asked him if there is a chance for a female pilot to become a member of the presidential air crew he said:

"I think there is [a chance]. But please note that I use the aircraft of the Rossiya airline, and they are not part of the armed forces."
