Air India’s senior pilot Zoya Agarwal was all over the news in January 2021 when the first-ever nonstop service between San Francisco and Bengaluru was launched last year. She led the all-women pilot crew that operated the first nonstop SFO-BLR flight over the North Pole, covering a large distance of more than 16,000 km.

Zoya Agarwal is the first Indian woman to fly an aircraft over the North Pole, and this historic flight on one of the longest nonstop routes in the world has landed her a place in the San Francisco Aviation Luis A Turpen Aviation Museum, popularly known as SFO Aviation Museum.

The museum, in its official statement, heaped praises on Zoya Agarwal for her incredible feat and inspiring career. Interestingly, she is the first human to get featured in the SFO Aviation Museum.

“Being able to record and share Captain Agarwal’s personal history allows SFO Museum to preserve the excitement and the historic nature of her extraordinary career with current and future generations of aviation enthusiasts,” an official from the SFO Aviation Museum was quoted as saying by ANI.
