Maria Pettersson, an attractive Swedish pilot for the low-cost airline Raynair, is not like the rest of her colleagues. She's an online sensation with over 200,000 followers on Instagram, where she regularly posts snapshots of her busy life—whether it's from her office above the clouds while she's breathing or doing yoga—and she recently started a blog that gives an in-depth look into her profession.
Maria Pettersson he comes from Sweden, more precisely from Gothenburg. His own Instagram account, which today is "burning out" due to a million visits, she opened after moving to Italy so she could share her adventures with her family, but quickly gained a much wider audience. Pettersson is currently living in Palermo (Sicily), and travels all over Europe on business. He's piloting Boeing 737 NG aircraft, which can accept 200 passengers. However, she is not overly impressed by the size of her steel bird, saying that it is only a child compared to aircraft such as Boeing 777 or Airbus 380, but adds that it is still large compared to a four-seat, single-engine sport plane Cessna 172, in which she began her piloting career.

It is an inspiration to many women, who want to enter the male-dominated world of pilots. Or as she says herself: "It's my story a story about strong women in a male-dominated environment and proof that we are as good as they are. You have to believe in yourself and have positive attitude towards life.” She lived modestly for a long time to save up for expensive flying hours, but now she lives her dream, which she shares with us on Instagram and blog. She became a pilot at the age of 25, professional pilot and at 30. The next time you fly with Ryanair, just check who your pilot is, maybe the very sexy Maria Pettersson is behind the wheel.
