Why did you want to become a pilot?

I grew up in Spain and Scandinavia and travelled a lot with my parents. Those days you could still visit the flight deck, which was always the highlight of the flight. My dream job was to become a flight attendant as at that time; I was not aware girls could become pilots.

Later, I was studying history in California when a friend of mine took me up in a C-152. That was it!

I was fascinated about the beauty and freedom of flight from my first Cessna ride onwards and wanted aviation to become my future, which it has been for over 25-years. It is a passion that will never die.

All the competencies are of interest to me. However, if I have to pick one, I would say Communication as it ties into all other competencies.
