Oxford and Cambridge have now decided to remove the words
CAN'T and IMPOSSIBLE from their dictionary
Jessica Cox, 25, a girl born without arms, stands
inside an aircraft. The girl from Tucson, Arizona
got the Sport Pilot certificate lately and became
the first pilot licensed to fly using only her feet.
Jessica Cox of Tucson was born without arms,
but that has only stopped her from doing one
thing: using the word "can't."
Her latest flight into the seemingly impossible
is becoming the first pilot licensed to fly using
only her feet.
With one foot manning the controls and the
other delicately guiding the steering column,
Cox, 25, soared to achieve a Sport Pilot
certificate. Her certificate qualifies her to
fly a light-sport aircraft to altitudes of
10,000 feet.
"She's a good pilot. She's rock solid," said Parrish
Traweek, 42, the flying instructor at San Manuel's
Ray Blair Airport.
Parrish Traweek runs PC Aircraft Maintenance
and Flight Services and has trained many pilots,
some of whom didn't come close to Cox's abilities.
Doctors never learned why she was born without
arms, but she figured out early on that she didn't
want to use prosthetic devices.
THE MORAL OF THE STORY IS NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE IN THIS WORLD UNTIL U DONT WISH TO DO IT,, WHEN THERE IS A WILL THERE IS A WAY ,,
