There are always some good women who will make that person feel that beauty is the least worthy compliment.
There is a "Mulan in the air" in Sichuan, named Wu Qianyu, who came into contact with airplanes at the age of 2, began to learn to fly at the age of 17, and became a female captain at the age of 26, the youngest female captain since the establishment of the Aviation Beauty Company.
She has been controversial from the choice of aviation field to her final achievement, why is that?
The source in this article comes from official media, but in order to improve the readability of the article, the details may be polished, please read sensibly, for reference only!
Paternal influence
Wu Qianyu was born in Sichuan Province in 1993, her family conditions are excellent, and her parents have formal jobs, which also provides sufficient conditions for her to boldly pursue her dreams later.
His father was a pilot in the army, according to unreliable sources, he was still Yang Liwei's comrade-in-arms, and after retiring, he became the captain of the airline, and his mother was a teacher.
Growing up in such a family environment, she did not become a little princess who liked the delicate dolls, but began to yearn for the blue sky, and often asked her father to talk about aviation.
Her mother wanted her to study hard and become a teacher in the future, after all, there were not many women pilots at that time, and the training was very hard, and some men couldn't stand it.
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, looking at their daughter's dedication to the plane, they have to follow their daughter's direction, after all, interest is the best teacher.
When she was in junior high school, Wu Qianyu was firm in her dream of becoming a pilot in the future, so she boldly expressed her thoughts to her father.
But the father was not very happy, after all, his daughter inherited his mantle, and he should be happy, but he was very entangled, being a pilot was too hard, and it took strong perseverance to overcome, he was both distressed and worried.
He was worried that his daughter would give up halfway, and in the end, the bamboo basket was empty, but as everyone knows, he finally became the only female captain among more than 550 people and the youngest female captain in the world.
Wu Qianyu was about to take the college entrance examination, just in time for the recruitment exam, after a series of selections, she was finally admitted to Qingdao Aviation Vocational College and began formal study.
She was the only woman in that batch of students, with a thin figure and a delicate and lovely face, and many people questioned whether she was in the wrong class, and it should be the flight attendant class in the opposite school building.
People who know her background will also openly and secretly ridicule her for going through the back door and relying on her connections to come in, she never pays attention to these remarks, and proving herself with strength is the best answer.
A qualified pilot, in addition to theoretical knowledge, must also have strong physical fitness, and basic fixed roller training alone dissuades many people.
Jumping in the air, walking a tightrope 10 meters, swinging in a fancy swing, etc., are just some of the physical training after the program.
When Wu Qianyu first started training, she remembered her father's sentence: "Since you have done it, you must do it well, and you must not give up halfway." ”
The terrifying training, other students can't avoid it, only she is the first to arrive every day, the last to go, the love in her heart can withstand all difficulties, you must make achievements to prove yourself, otherwise you will really become a relationship through the back door.
The realization of "Mulan in the air".
For Wu Qianyu's success, many people will attribute most of the credit to her having a good father, after all, this is an opportunity left by her ancestors, and it can't be said that she is wrong.
Her father's education since she was a child gave her an earlier and deeper understanding of this aspect of knowledge, which is an opportunity for her to be more advanced than others, but after all, she is flying in the sky, and she needs to work hard to reach a certain level to complete.
Compared with her, ordinary people have a lower starting point, but there is nothing wrong with her, she should not deny her dedication and efforts, when chasing her dreams, she should grasp the opportunity, create opportunities if she has no opportunity, and if she can't create it, she will work hard, even if she becomes a salted fish in the end, she is also a salted fish that has worked hard.
After a year and a half of study, she became the top graduate of that class, and her flexible reflexes and high concentration will be her significant advantages as a pilot.
In 2013, the 20-year-old Wu Qianyu entered the internship of Chengdu Airlines with her own advantages, and many people will question whether the relationship between her father came in.
No matter how solid the theoretical knowledge is, it is not as good as the actual operation experience, there are hundreds of passengers on an airplane, and the captain's responsibility is heavy, so he can't joke easily.
After Wu Qianyu entered the airline, she carried out a lot of training and study, followed the instructor every day to learn knowledge, and only after passing the exam could she have the opportunity to enter the cockpit, realizing the first step of being a female captain.
During the student assessment, when she was driving a Cessna small plane to return according to the route, another small passenger plane suddenly broke in, and if she did not adjust the route in time, it was very likely that they would collide with each other, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Before waiting for the controller's command, she flexibly steered the plane to turn and circle flexibly, avoiding the tragedy, although she changed the route without authorization, but also reflected her composure and ability to win the situation, won the unanimous praise of the leadership.
Wu Qianyu successfully passed the assessment, got the opportunity to enter the cockpit, and became a co-pilot, which is one step closer to becoming a female captain.
According to the regulations of practitioners in the aviation field, in order to become a captain, in addition to excellent conditions in all aspects, you must also have 2,700 hours of flying experience, and you must go through 5 levels of assessment and promotion, and it will take 4 years at the earliest.
During this 2,700-hour flight, Wu Qianyu also encountered a lot of extremely bad weather, and finally saved the day, and in 2018, after she successfully flew for enough time, she applied for the captain's evaluation.
In the next 4 months, she worked up with 12 points, and finally successfully passed the assessment and became a trainee captain, only one step away from her goal.
On February 24, 2019, the most important year in Wu Qianyu's life, she officially became a captain, the youngest four-bar since the establishment of the company, and became the only woman among more than 550 pilots.
The most important point is that she has set a new record for the youngest female captain in China, and the last young female captain was a foreigner, Kimberley.
Wu Qianyu has become a female captain with both appearance and strength when she is 26 years old, and when she broadcasts her voice, she still has a weak woman's voice, which attracts many tourists to question her.
Some even said: Resolutely not to take her flight in the future, which also shows from the side how difficult it is for her to achieve her current results as a woman.
From the beginning of learning to be a pilot, to finally becoming a powerful female captain, this journey has been full of doubts and ridicule, she did not pay attention to it, but firmly moved towards her goal.
In the past few years, he has been doing his own work diligently in the aerospace field, safely sending every passenger to the destination he needs, and living up to every expectation in his life.
In the past few years of her career, with her calm and calm approach and flexible adaptability, she has turned danger into a disaster in the event of an emergency.
In March 2021, Wu Qianyu won the honorary title of "Sichuan Province 38 Red Flag Bearer", and in March 2023, she was awarded the title of National May Day Women's Model.
Now Wu Qianyu is 31 years old, and it is also the fifth year that she has become a female captain.
Many people will envy her starting point, it is undeniable that opportunities are crucial for dreams, but there is no if in life, for what there is, firmly grasp it, and what you don't have can not be requested, if you get the script of ordinary people, then it is also a good choice to live a good life.
