    Hi, from Japan.
    I will be a airline pilot trainee this April. I found your channel two years ago and you’ve been a great inspiration from that moment.
    I failed once, but I finally make it last year. It’s because of you, thank you.

    Sara, over the past year, I've been observing your journey as a pilot. While I'm aware you probably receive numerous messages from aspiring young female pilots, I wanted to express my deep gratitude for being able to witness your growth. At 17, I've just started my own journey into flying, and it feels like I'm truly experiencing life for the first time. As someone who shares your background-half Japanese, half white-I've never connected with someone like you before. Your story inspires me to persevere through my high school years, anticipating the happiness and rewards that hard work will bring. Thank you immensely!
