    Hello there everyone! My name is Amelia. I’m a 17 year old PPL(A) Student, Gliding Instructor, Motorglider pilot and Full Time A-levels Student. I am also part of the Elevate(hers) team for 2023-24.

    I recently completed my first year of A-levels and just finished all my PPL Written exams. I’m currently completing the rest of my PPL training throughout my summer holidays, with thanks to the Attagirls Molly Rose Pilot Scholarship.

    Flying has been my passion since the age of 4, when I first flew to Scily Isles on a twin otter and there were two female pilots in the cockpit. Ever since then, I’ve always been aviation obsessed! I began flying gliders at the age of 13, went solo in them by the age of 14 (whilst dodging covid lockdowns!) and became one of the UK’s youngest gliding instructors at the age of 16. Since I began flying, I made it my mission to share the awesome world of aviation to people through social media and first hand! My ambition in coming years is to become a Flight Instructor or join the military as aircrew.

    Would be great to meet more aviators in the future, see you in the skies, Amelia (@amelia_glider_pilot)
