Rosemary Sugh, a 23-year old graduate of Nigerian College of Aviation Technology, Zaria, was born on November 14, 1992...and according to an interview she granted last year, she has flown three planes so far, a TD9, a TD20, and a Multi Engine, B68. Speaking about why she became a pilot, Rosemary, who is from Kwande local government area of Benue state. said;
- It was my childhood
determination. When I look up
and see planes flying and
making noise , I was like, God, I
have to be a pilot. And it helped
me in the sense that the kind of
movies I watched, one of the
movies was Starship Trooper.
There was a lot of
discouragement from my
parents and other people. They
assumed that if you are a lady
and you are a pilot, you may not
marry, you can’t cope with
marriage. So, when I saw a lady
in that Starship Trooper, I was
moved. I said wow, if this girl
can fly, then I can fly. And I put it
into prayers, despite all the
obstacles and discouragement."
