‘Right Footed’ chronicles life of first armless pilot.
As a child, Jessica Cox wasn’t allowed to climb the slide at the playground. Born without arms, she was limited — not by her own abilities, but by protective grown-ups who told her, “Oh, you can’t do that.”
“I wanted to be up high,” Cox said, but because she had no way of holding onto the steps on the 12-foot slide, the playground monitors prevented her from climbing.
