Hi everyone. My name is Becky Shaw.  I’m a software engineer and PPL(A) pilot based out of Leicestershire. I love my story about how I got into aviation because it was pure chance. During Covid I had a truck driving experience booked but nowhere was running any as this was peak Covid. By pure happenstance on the way back from the beach, my wife and I were driving past Leicester Arro Club and she suggested moving my truck experience to a flying one. Ever since then I’ve been in love with the sky. My journey hasn’t been an easy one, having maybe had three nice flying days throughout my training; first solo in the snow, bird strike, constant crazy winds and weather and yet despite all that I was never deterred, never wavered, and never quit. Now thanks to the amazing friends I’ve made I’m working towards becoming an instructor.
