Jessica Cox is not your average pilot.

杰西卡·考克斯可不是一般的飞行员。

The 32-year-old, who was born with a rare non-genetic birth defect that left her without arms, has never let her disability hold her back. Growing up, Cox did it all, from swim lessons to girl scouts, modeling, tap dancing and Taekwondo — at the age of 14, she'd already earned a black belt.

杰西卡今年32岁，她在一出生时就患有罕见的非遗传性疾病，导致其失去了双臂，但身体的残疾并没有击退她。从小到大，她几乎什么都做过，学了游泳，参加了女童子军，当模特，跳踢踏舞，还学了跆拳道，14岁就已是黑带。

"I can't believe how much I did growing up. Every single day after school there was something going on. I don't know how my parents did it," Cox told TODAY. "I was expected to learn to do things like everybody else in my own way, which worked out just fine."

“这一路成长过来，我自己都无法相信自己做了那么多的事。每天放学后都会有事情发生。我不知道我的父母是怎样做到的，考克斯告诉《今日》说，“我的父母希望我能跟其他人一样学会做一些事情，按我的方式来，这一切都挺顺利的。

She even learned how to fly a plane with her feet.

她甚至学会了如何用脚开飞机。
