<\/p>\nYoungest Black Female Pilot for Commercial Airline.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Nationwide<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 Miracle Izuchukwu, who is from New York City, will soon break barriers when she officially becomes part of the 1% of Black female pilots for major commercial airlines around the world. Now 24-years old, she is currently in training to become a Commercial Airline Pilot and continues to inspire other people with her story.<\/p>\n Miracle, whose parents are Nigerian, says that she grew up in a very discouraging environment. She said her ambitions were often looked down on because of her gender, but she did not let it stop her from dreaming big.<\/p>\n She initially joined the aviation industry when she became a flight attendant with American Airlines. She had always wanted to become a pilot since when she first encountered one while she was still working as a customer service representative.<\/p>\n Excited, Miracle told her father about her plan but she said he told her that \u201cif he gets on a plane and sees a woman as the pilot, he would get off the plane.\u201d<\/p>\n Despite that, she believed that she will make it. She used that discouragement as fuel to keep her going. Indeed, she earned her Private Pilots License in 2021.<\/p>\n \u201cWhoever it is praying for me, don\u2019t stop, it\u2019s working. I joined the elite group of 7% of females and 1% of black female pilots in the world. It\u2019s an exhilarating, yet surreal feeling to introduce myself to the world as a Pilot,\u201d Miracle wrote on\u00a0her Instagram post<\/a>.<\/p>\n Currently, she is in training to become a Commercial Airline pilot, and she shares tips about pilot training as well as encouraging stories about her journey on her social media pages.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Youngest Black Female Pilot for Commercial Airline.
