Captain Zoya Agarwal, a senior AirIndia Boeing-777 pilot and the first Indian woman to fly an aircraft over the North Pole, completing a record-breaking distance of about 16,000 kilometres, took her place in the SFO aviation museum. An all-female Flying India crew led by Zoya Agarwal flew the world’s longest air route from San Francisco (SFO) to Bengaluru, encompassing the North Pole, for the first time ever.
