About the Author

Zara Rutherford is the world's youngest female pilot to complete a solo trip around the world. At the age of 19, during her gap year, she decided to just go for it, and she worked hard to find sponsors, raise the necessary money, source the right type of plane, and plan the route she would take around the globe. Growing up as the daughter of pilots, Zara has always been familiar with the world of aviation, but this ambitious feat seemed impossible before she put her mind to it and decided that she had nothing to lose. Having achieved this incredible feat at just 19, who knows what Zara will do next?
