Its actually around 5%.

I had a female captain on BA back from Singapore in May on the 744. For those who can remember a BBC programme that followed a 747 from London to Sydney (via Bangkok) back in the late 80's/early 90's (think it was called airline) Well, the lowly first officer who had 2 stripes who took over for the cruise and was interviewed about female pilots now has 4 stripes

Also had a numerous female F/O on BA on the 744, A319 and 737.
