She sounds so emotionally responsible and mature. She appeared to be very well prepared for her flight. That airport was busy, and she was also on center line the entire time, for takeoff and landing.
ikr. 16 and got up at 430am to drive 1.5 hours to achieve her goal. What a beautiful young lady. My daughter is 17 ; they grow up so fast. Wasn't I just changing her diaper like last week?
“That was pretty good.” Are you kidding me, that first landing was greased! Keep having high expectations for yourself and you will continue to be great. Congratulations Kamora!
I don't know you but I'm very proud of you I used to live in Long Island a long time ago when I was a little kid now I'm 61 I fly on the flight simulator but seeing you do your landing really makes me proud of you and I hope you continue your life in aviation and become a captain one day at a major airlines my dad worked for the airlines he was in the air cargo business I flew most of my young life and I love aviation and I also got involved in aviation by fueling jets at a little small private airport where I met a lot of pilots and I also loaded aircraft for delta airlines down in Melbourne FL an ending I would just like to say you go girl the sky 's the limit and I hope you have success in your life happy contrails.
As a veteran, it's nice to see American young people doing something nice with their lives. Congrats to you and may the Good Lord bless you always. Good going.
Congrats! No pilot forgets this day - more than even a check ride it stays with us forever. Fantastic work handling the additional work load of the radio coms, busy pattern and video narration!
This came across my feed and I watched it. Then I realized this is the young lady from the commercial on TV showing her as a young pilot in training. I loved it and sky's the limit to you Kamora.❤❤❤Love from a former NYer living in Dallas, TX.
We appreciate you all!! thank you for commenting & liking this video it means so much to us💯. SHOUTOUT to our newest subscribers, welcome to the UYA family!! 🤗
Kamora !!! Princess !! You are amazing !! I’m beyond proud of you ! You are leading the way graciously and flourishing into a admirable Queen. May God continue to bless you & your family and May all of your dreams come true in Jesus’s name. Xoxo Luciana’s big sister, Diamond
This is amazing and inspiring👏🏽 kudos to her parents the UYA, and everyone in her village that keeps her so well grounded. Excited to see what's next for her🎉🎉🎉
Very special so proud and dont even know her im trying to motivate my young nephews to get into aviation and will share so they see more who look like them GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Considering how many there are flying who shouldn't getting into accidents it was great to see a confident, young woman fly who actually knows what she is doing.
She's so well-spoken and intelligent for her age. I'm glad to see her pursuing what makes her happy with so much nonsense going on in today's world where her peers are falling apart.
saw this video for first time and I am very happy for you, hope many joys come your way in the years ahead. Your solo went very well. I am glad you are happy with it. It was fun to watch and exciting to see you do it in stride. YOU ARE A CHAMPION GIRL. I am glad your mom and dad were there for you.
She's setting herself up for a fantastic career so early. She's breaking barriers for aviators being of multiple underrepresented minorities in aviation and I'm all for it! Congrats to Kamora, her parents, and CFI for getting her to her first solo! Cheers to many many more!
That's how a real Girl Boss rolls. Nothing gives me more joy than seeing a young person excel. . . "Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth And danced in the skies on laughter silvered wings. . . Where never lark, or even eagle flew - And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod The high untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand and touched the face of God." Excerpt from the poem High Flight by John Gillespie Magee Jr., a WW II Canadian fighter pilot. This is just the first and the last verse. The whole poem is definitely worth the time it would take to find it on the web. It was used as a sign off for many local TV stations when they shut down at night decades ago. I've heard it more times than I can count. While we're on the subject of hoodies, I would buy a UYA hoodie in a heartbeat. I bet I'm not the only one. You could put "Ground Crew" on it to distinguish it from participating members hoodies. Anyway, that's all I got. Cheers
OMG! SHE GOES TO MY SCHOOL! SHE IN 11 GRADE! I SAW THIS VIDEO IN MY SOCIAL STUDIES CLASS! I LEARNED THAT SHE IS VERY SMART! (I think she she is graduating this year) I’m in 6th grade, but I’ve seen her in the hallways!
This warmed my heart so much❤ What an exciting day. Great start on her life’s journey. Nothings going to stop her now… she knows there are no limits… 😊Fearless 😊 🙌🏼absolutely beautiful 💖 well done 💖
This is phenomenal. I really got emotional watching you do your thing. The future is bright for you, Kamora. Great job, parents and the entire village. ❤🎉 🫡
i enjoyed the vid and a great job of flying for first solo. i remember mine well and it was over 50 yrs ago, she is so calm. i did noticed a big problem that if not corrected will cause her a lot of problems. at no time when talking to tower or ground did she say who she was. it didnt seem to be a problem at that airport but at an other one, she will be in trouble and i would hate to see that happen. it will damage her confident in her self. hope her CFI will work on this with her.
What an absolute BLESSING for all of those young folks!!! I'm not pilot at all, but couldn't help but notice that ATC was doing line-up-and-waits on the active runways when the students are performing their first solo flights!?!?!? Ahhhhh....
Love what you’re doing for some of our underserved youth!! She looks to be just one of many you are positively impacting and inspiring. And she did great!
Just like all pilots, she critiques her own landings. Great first solo flight!
Great job!
She sounds so emotionally responsible and mature. She appeared to be very well prepared for her flight. That airport was busy, and she was also on center line the entire time, for takeoff and landing.
Yes she was very prepared & pumped for this moment she definitely made us proud!.
ikr. 16 and got up at 430am to drive 1.5 hours to achieve her goal. What a beautiful young lady. My daughter is 17 ; they grow up so fast. Wasn't I just changing her diaper like last week?
Congratulation 🎊 good job.. i also solo at the same airport at 16. Went to george wingate high in brooklyn and got into the flight program....
“That was pretty good.” Are you kidding me, that first landing was greased! Keep having high expectations for yourself and you will continue to be great. Congratulations Kamora!
Wow just 16… so amazing! I’m proud of you little cousin!! You are AWESOME❤

Good job young lady!!! Stay the course.
Our youth have so many problems these days -- it warms my heart to see a young lady with a serious interest, and supportive family and teachers.
As a veteran, it's nice to see American young people doing something nice with their lives. Congrats to you and may the Good Lord bless you always. Good going.
Congrats! No pilot forgets this day - more than even a check ride it stays with us forever. Fantastic work handling the additional work load of the radio coms, busy pattern and video narration!

Perfect song for her in the background "Unstoppable" 🙂

I love seeing this. I took my first solo at 16 years old back in 1994. The best feeling ever
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Yesss!!! Go girl!
She's so well-spoken and intelligent for her age. I'm glad to see her pursuing what makes her happy with so much nonsense going on in today's world where her peers are falling apart.
That was awesome!!!
