Jessica Cox

World's first licensed armless pilot · Author of Disarm Your Limits

Born without arms due to a rare condition, Jessica Cox has defied all odds to become the world's first licensed armless pilot and the first armless black belt in the American Taekwondo Association. Since the age of 14, she has chosen to live without prosthetic arms — driving an unmodified car, typing, pumping gas, and handling her own contact lenses, all with her feet. She is also a certified scuba diver. Jessica earned her pilot's certificate in 2008 through an Able Flight scholarship and is licensed to fly light-sport aircraft up to 10,000 feet. She flies an ERCO 415-C Ercoupe, a 1940s aircraft built without rudder pedals, controlling it entirely with her feet.
