First turbaned woman sikh makes us proud by becoming USA pilot





Featuring Arpinder Kaur: Piloting a Life by Raj Singh (Age 17)

Arpinder Kaur became first turbaned woman pilot in the USA history.

“Two of the reasons I did this were: first, my love of flying and, second, to
set a precedent for the community so they know you can be in your Sikh
appearance and do anything out there; so that my younger brothers and sisters
[the rising generation] will pursue their passions while practicing their Sikh
faith.”

Desi Legend blog would like to thank Arpinder Kaur for making every Sikh proud! Simply awesome news! Great to have an amritdhari female pilot. It is indeed very inspirational news. She is a great role model for many Sikhs!
