Te Puke s Olivia Pratt knew flying was in her blood long before she managed to take the controls of a plane.
It was during a family trip to the United States that she discovered her ambition to be a pilot. I flew to America with Mum and Dad and 10 planes in a week was enough to make me fall in love with flying, says the 14-year-old.
