AOPA profiled The Impossible Airplane today, and Iโm grateful. ๐โ๏ธ
This isnโt about proving I can fly without armsโI did that years ago.
Itโs about redesigning aviation so more people can belong from the start.

Pitch and roll will be with a "slipper" on the floor with my left foot. Rudder is still being ironed out, but that will be with my right foot. The throttle is a quadrant, so it's easier for me to use. AFS verified the touchscreens are toe-friendly! More at AirVenture!
๐ฉ๏ธ On the 122nd anniversary of the Wright brothersโ flight, we revealed the paint scheme for The Impossible Airplaneโbuilt so I can fly using only my feet. Itโs not โCan she fly?โ Itโs: How far can this mission go?

Spoke with the amazing women of the Sedona 99s about adaptability, flying, and doing it all with my feet. I didnโt fly in this time, but I brought the mindset that limits are meant to be challenged. โ๏ธ

Today is International Day of Persons with Disabilities โ a reminder that disability isnโt a limitation.
On Dec 17, Iโll reveal the official paint scheme for The Impossible Airplane โ inspired by my Filipino heritage and the journey of turning โimpossibleโ into flight.
#TheImpossibleAirplane
๐ Can you guess what this is?
It may look like buttons and screens, but to me, itโs years of dreaming, designing, and believing that impossible can take flight.
Stay tuned โ Iโll share what this blueprint means for The Impossible Airplane soon. ๐โ๏ธ

A commenter says itโs disgusting Jessica uses her feet even though she doesnโt have arms. Jessicaโs reply says her feet are probably cleaner than most peopleโs hands.
No worries, all. I wash my feet regularly and my next pedi is already scheduled!
Before college, I was scared to shop alone. I didnโt know how Iโd do it.
Now, Chewie (my service dog) and I have it down to a system. He wears a backpack. I grab what we need with my feet. Together, we make it work.
Itโs not about doing it like everyone else. Itโs about doing it your way. ๐พ

My journey as a pilot without arms is about more than flyingโitโs about choosing courage over comfort.

Jessica Cox, a Filipino American woman born without arms, stands in front of the empennage of a small plane wearing a shirt with the silhouette of a t-Rex holding reachers with the text โIโm unstoppable.โ
Are you unstoppable?
Loving the new shirt Pat bought me. What do you think?
Pilots with disabilities have found ways to fly for decades.
