First Women in Chad Air Force to Become Pilots
DECEMBER 31, 2020 – A journey begins with a single step, but for two lieutenants from the Republic of Chad Air Force, that first step was more than 7,100 miles from home.
While students from Chad have been attending the Defense Language Institute English Language Center for several years, 2nd Lieutenants Ahmat Sadie and Hissein Haoua are the first women in the Chad Air Force to become pilots. They’re presently assigned to the General English Training course at DLIELC, which concludes in January. After that, they’ll attend the Oral Proficiency Skills for Aviation course and in July, it’s off to Spartan Aviation in Tulsa, Oklahoma, to learn to fly.
