ON May 10, the civil Aviation Committee of the Kazakh Transport Ministry announced that the female crew of the Civil Aviation Academy completed its inaugural flight at the Taraz airfield, reports the Astana Times.
The historic flight was piloted by instructor Adelina Lutsenko and student Yekaterina Styopina, who took off in a Tecnam 2002JF single-engine training aircraft.
'The feeling is basically the same as during any other flight with a student. This experience seems obvious to me. During my training, I also had two female instructors. I also felt proud. Still, the first female crew of the academy, and at the same time, it is sad that this only happened in 2024,' said Ms Lutsenko.
