PAKISTAN-LIFESTYLE-AVIATION

In this photograph taken on August 6, 2012, eighteen year old Pakistani female flying student Qadar Sarfraz (R) communicates with air traffic control as she prepares for take off on a training flight at Lahore's Walton airport. The chief executive of Hybrid Flying School, Mohsin Syed, says there has been a 50 percent increase in student numbers in recent years. He put the rise down to the perceived glamour of the industry, the creation of new jobs in an expanding aviation sector and widening horizons. The liberalisation of television since 1999, the end of military rule in 2008 and the growth of private airlines have broadened leisure horizons for a largely insulated elite in deeply conservative Pakistan.
