Ritu Rathee Taneja is an Indian Pilot and YouTube Vlogger who became famous after appearing in her husband, Gaurav Tanejas (Flying Beast), daily vlogs.Ritu was born and brought up in a middle class family in Haryana India. She dreamt of becoming a pilot since childhood but was always struggled to come out of stereotypes of society she was living in. She grew up in a society where her relatives thought that she should get married before she got too educated but her parents played the role of her biggest supports who worked hard to send her to school. Talking about her passion, she said I was never a desk person and was very good with Maths and Science. I never wanted to get into engineering, but a friends suggestion to become a pilot got me thinking. I went to Arizona in the US for pilot training. It was not that I dreamt of becoming a pilot, but once I started flying, it turned into a passion..Breaking all the stereotypes and leaving behind all boundaries, she applied for the training programs in the US. Eight months later, she got the admission in a well reupdated flying school in aboard. Her parents were very much hesitant to send her halfway across the world alone and major issue was arranging a big amount of money to pay for her course. Finding a solution for it, Ritu requested her father to spend the money he had saved for her wedding on her education instead, promising to make them proud one day. I was good in studies as well as in motor skills. The main thing was the society pressure. I had to convince my father a lot for my training. It was the first time in my family that a girl alone from my family traveled abroad. It was a tough decision for my parents to take.

She also lost her mother due to a brain haemorrhage during this period of her life and her family was surviving on loans. In order to tackle the situation, she studied for more than seven hours a day to get a job and also did a part-time job to financially support her family.During an interview, she narrated her struggles, and said, I decided to do a job for Rs 12k and used to ride my karizma bike from Gurgaon to Delhi everyday. I was always a tomboy kind of personality. Later, I went to Ahmedabad for another job which was paying me around 25k. The scenario of aviation got better and there were some vacancies. My daily routine was very hectic. After doing all the work I used to study from 9 pm to 3am. Then sleep and wake up in between studying and then going to my work. I could never hangout with my colleagues..A year later, she finally got an offer to join as a co-pilot from a well established airline in India. This was a life changing moment of her life. She flew about 60 flights a month for almost four years and was eventually promoted to the position of the Captain. Talking about her passion for flying, she said, I love to fly aircraft, flying in the sky, landing the aircraft, having a watch on the weather. Every flight has different challenges and I love to take up those challenges, and I love my profession, she says ecstatically while talking about her profession. I love the randomness of flying. Flying challenges you; youre thinking of your procedures, your way of doing things, and pushes you to bring out the best of yourself..Ritu Rathee Taneja met her future husband, Gaurav Taneja, at a quarterly training done by the airlines for all the pilots. At that time, Gaurav was captain in the same airline.
