A woman in Riverside County has broken the record for being the world's oldest active pilot and flight instructor.
According to ABC7, Robina Asti gave her final flight lesson for NextGen Flight Academy at Riverside Municipal Airport yesterday (July 26th), breaking the previous record held by a 98-year-old man in Iowa.
"I love getting people to experience what it's like to lift off this Earth," she told ABC7. "It is so good."
"She taught me some things up there that I haven't learned in well over 1,000 hours," noted NextGen's CEO Brandon Martini. "It was neat getting a new perspective from somebody who's been flying so long."
Inside Edition reported that last year, Asti attempted to fly over the Hudson River in an effort to break the record.
