At 17, she can fly in the skies but not drive on roads

 

Good Morning friends,
Tuesday starts with prayer. Shivam Patel’s exam also starts from today, so bit busy with him in the morning. When I read timeofindia I found this article so inspirational, I like to share with you all. A 17 year girl Greema Patel from ahmedabad can fly in the skies. She has a private flying license from US. She is not eligible to drive car in ahmedabad as RTO not allowed license below the age of 18 year.

 

Greema had decided to become a pilot when she was in class X. Her dreams took flight at Ahmedabad Aviation and Aeronautics Limited, in Mehsana. After getting 10 hours of flying to her credit, Greema decided it was time to move on.

 

Her father, who is mukhi (chief) of the village, gave wings to her dreams by sending her to Florida. Between April and September this year, Greema completed 80 hours of flying there. And, when Greema was just two months over 17 years, she got a licence to fly.

 

 

“The training period at Florida was very difficult and thrilling at the same time. It was difficult because I was staying alone at the aviation school in Florida and thrilling because of my flights in the skies,” says Greema.
