Flying high at 62: Czech woman pilot mesmerises

Bangalore, February 10
Age is no bar for this 62-year-old woman pilot who is still flying high leading the Flying Bulls, the Czech Republic-based aerobatic team that is performing at the ongoing Aero India show here.

Radka Machova’s role in the aerobatic team includes leading the formation into various complex manoeuvres, a vertical loop, a dive or roll on, the manager, Martin said.

A mother of two and an avid photographer, Radka loves her current profile, Martin said.

“It is the adventure, the thrill of the sport and positive mindset that keeps her going,” he said. Radka along with her other team mates, Jiri Saller, Giri Vebrel and Miro Slav Krejci left many speechless as they performed mid-air manoeuvres. — PTI
