"I never say, 'I can't do that.' I just say, 'Do it'. Flying is the most fantastic feeling in the world," the Sun quoted Jessica Cox, as saying. This comes from the strong will power springing out of her, ever ready to battle the infirmities of her disability.

The 25 year old armless Jessica Cox has amazed her family and friends by becoming the first pilot ever to fly a plane using only her feet.

Jessica Cox, of Tucson, Arizona, took three years of flying lesson in an adapted light aircraft instead of the usual six months of training. The spirited woman, being a psychology graduate, uses her feet to write, type, drive, brush aher hair and lift the phone. Not to forget that she is also a Tai kwon-do black belt.

Disablity ? Not even in her dreams !
