Yasmeen Al Maimani has become the first female commercial pilot in Saudi Arabia, six years after she obtained her aviation licence from the Saudi Civil Aviation Authority. The history-making Saudi had completed 300 hours of flying practice in the United States, and then swapped her American license for a Saudi one in 2013. In an Instagram post, she captioned the photo: “Thank God, I achieved my dream today. Released as First Officer.”
