Patricia Mawuli Nyekudzi’s plane has an engine capacity of 80 horse power.
She built the ultra light plane with support from Expresso and fellow students at the Aviation Technical Academy at Kpong.
She is currently flying the plane across the country on a test flight.
Joy FM’s Eastern Regional Correspondent Benjamin Tetteh reports the flight took off 6:00 am Monday.
According to him, Patricia, together with her co-pilot flew the plane off the Manya Krobo mountains.
