Female Pilot Celebrates First Flight as Certified Captain

Aseman, the first aviation school for women in Iran, was founded in 2004. It trained students to read and use plan position indicators, taught them avionics (managing a plane’s electronic systems), hosting, repairs and maintenance, flight guidance, and other related areas. Since the institution was established, the number of similar schools has increased. Despite IranWire’s attempts, these schools did not respond to requests for information regarding tuition and costs.
