Sakurai Aviation Celebrates Sri Lanka’s Youngest Female PPL Holder

Sakurai Aviation is immensely proud to announce a historic milestone in Sri Lankan aviation history! One of our brilliant flight students has successfully earned her Private Pilot License (PPL) at an astonishingly young age, officially becoming Sri Lanka’s Youngest Female PPL Holder.

This incredible achievement is a testament to her sheer determination, discipline, and passion for flying, as well as the world-class training provided by our experienced flight instructors. Throughout her flight training program, she demonstrated exceptional skill in ground school academics, solo navigational flights, and challenging flight maneuvers under Civil Aviation Authority guidelines.

"Empowering the next generation of aviators is at the core of Sakurai Aviation. Achieving a PPL at such a young age sets a powerful example for aspiring female pilots across the country."

As Sri Lanka’s premier domestic airline and flight training academy, Sakurai Aviation remains committed to breaking barriers and supporting young talents in achieving their dreams in the aviation industry. We extend our warmest congratulations to her and wish her clear skies and smooth landings as she proceeds toward her Commercial Pilot License (CPL).
