Why did you want to become a pilot?

Like many others, it was a childhood dream! But how did I finally take the plunge? In France, I was a firefighter, and in 2023, during the massive wildfires in Canada, I was lucky enough to be selected to fight those fires and help our colleagues in Quebec! On the ground, the main mode of transportation was the helicopter, due to these vast boreal regions. Pilots everywhere, stars in their eyes, and there I was, determined to get my commercial pilot’s license. A little over a year later, I was at the controls, ready for a new adventure.

What is your fondest memory as a driver so far?

My night flight training, with flights over illuminated cities, fireworks seen from above, and that sense of freedom I’ve never felt so strongly before.
