Hilary Swank Wants to Fly!
Posted by Adam
Hilary Swank could be a pilot when her acting career starts heading south — she’s taking flying lessons!
The Boys Don’t Cry star, 35, says she’s learning how to fly for her role as famed aviator Amelia Earhart in upcoming film Amelia.
“I am studying for my pilot’s license,” she said. “I don’t sweat a lot, but when I fly, my whole back is drenched. The concentration, the focus. It is so wonderful.
“I just picked up my boyfriend in Las Vegas! He had a business meeting there, and I flew with my instructor and picked him up.”
Swank isn’t the only Hollywood star qualified to take to the skies — John Travolta, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise are all keen pilots.
Meanwhile, Swank — who is currently dating her former agent, John Campisi — has revealed she’d quite like to start a family with her beau one day and enjoys spending time with John’s son Sam, from a previous relationship.
“Sam’s a sweetheart,” said Swank.
“I most definitely want children. It’s something I’d like to do someday. And when the timing is right I’ll hopefully know it.”
