Lots of little boys dream about flying aeroplanes when they grow up.
But only one can say he realised his ambition while still a teenager.
At
the tender age of 19, Luke Elsworth is already flying British
holidaymakers around the world – after qualifying as the UK’s youngest
commercial airline pilot.
The
fresh-faced teenager was appointed a first officer with easyJet in
April and last week completed his final checks before taking over the
controls.
Luke (pictured with his father Paul) completed the course - which included six months on simulators and a stint flying light aircraft in Arizona, USA - in 18 months
