Gisele Bundchen Passes Pilot’s Exam
Posted by Adam
PREGNANT Gisele Bundchen is one step closer to becoming a pilot!
The supermodel — who’s expecting her first child with husband Tom Brady — has reportedly passed a written exam for her pilot’s license.
“Gisele hasn’t finished her license yet, but she did pass her written exam,” says Keith Douglass, president of Shoreline Aviation, a company that provides private jets and aviation lessons. “Now, there’s one more step along the way, the practical exam [in the air], which is coming up in another week.”
Gisele, 29, is due to give birth in about a month — but she isn’t slowing down.
“She’s very dedicated,” Douglass added. “Flying a helicopter isn’t easy — it’s a handful, because you can’t stop flying and just cruise, but she’s doing great.”
Though she continues to fly “at least three days a week,” Bundchen will soon face an obstacle: her baby bump!
“She’s almost to a point where she’s too big to be flying,” Douglass said. “She needs to be able to move the rudder around and she’s getting there.”
“We have pilots that fly right up to the end of their pregnancies,” Douglas added. “She doesn’t go very high, maybe 500 feet or 1,000 feet, which is nothing. She’s always close and can get down quickly if she needs to.”
