My names Libby and I am currently on my journey to the flight deck via an Integrated ATPL program.

I completed my exams in February and have just returned from 6 months in the States doing my Basic Flying Training and my CPL!

This picture is from my first solo upon heading back! I didn’t think the day would come after a bit of a rocky moment. I stayed resilient and with the support of my course mates and incredible instructors, my confidence returned and my first solo was a perfect buttered landing … somehow these only ever happened solo ?!

Before flying I was a gymnastics coach and even did a summer as cabin crew, in which I learnt a lot about the industry and lifestyle. Becoming a pilot has been a dream for many years and my first visit to the flight deck and then after meeting a female pilot. Once I realised I was capable and there is opportunities within the male-dominated industry, I knew a life at 30,000ft was where I wanted to be!
