FIL-AM GIRL WITHOUT ARMS A SPORT PILOT
This is inspiring to all of us and another story where we could be proud as Filipinos. “If there is really a will , there will really be a way.” I got this over anjomiranda. Hope this could be an inspiration to all of us not only to aspiring pilots and people with diablities. Filipino-American Girl, Born Without Arms, Certified by Federal Aviation Administration as Sport Pilot, Visits Philippines to Inspire Fellow Filipinos !
“Flying was my greatest fear in life, and therefore I was motivated to conquer my fear by flying a plane. It is one of my greatest achievements in life and I really worked hard for it.”
This is what Jessica Cox, a 26-year-old Filipina-American based in Arizona, told The Manila Bulletin in an interview.
While some might not see flying a plane as great achievement, it is important to note that, unlike most aspiring pilots, Jessica was born armless.
