A blind Arizona woman is making a rare but monumental achievement: She's piloting a plane.
Foundation for Blind Children"I've had to go through extensive ground school and in-flight training just to figure out all the ins and outs and all the details," Armstrong said."They were able to get me a poster of the inside and exact replica," she said. "I was able to Braille it at home, so I put it up on the wall or on the table and I just sit in front of it and practice for hours.
"Fast forward to today, I've lost all of my peripheral [vision] and can only see a couple of inches from my face," she said., which is meant to give blind kids a chance to prove that they're capable of anything, according to Marc Ashton, CEO for the Foundation of Blind Children.
