Ayesha Farooq - Fighter Pilot

Ayesha Farooq, Pakistan's only female war-ready fighter 
pilot.

Ayesha Farooq, a 26-year-old woman, dons her olive green scarf to cover her hair and puts on a combat helmet to cover her hair -- for she is the first female war-ready fighter pilot in the all-male Pakistani air force.

This February, Ayesha, who hails from Punjab province's Bhawalpur, passed all the necessary tests to participate in combat missions -- she is the only one of the 19 women who have become pilots in the country's air force in the last decade.
