Afghan Air Force pilots Hasina Najibi and Raihana Rahim, both 25, share a passion for flying. Both women faced discrimination and overcame great barriers of entry in their careers. When planning their return home from Dubai in August 2022, the Taliban captured Kabul. In fear of the Taliban taking revenge on their families if they learned about their job, they asked their families to burn the uniforms, diplomas, and IDs they left at home. The women now live together in Southern Florida, in the United Stats, waiting tables and talking about their longing to return to aviation.
