Angelina Jolie training daughter Shiloh to be a pilot

London, July 02: Hollywood star Angelina Jolie is training her eldest daughter Shiloh to be a pilot and recently took her along on a flight lesson.

The Academy Award winning actress, who has six children with partner Brad Pitt, sat in the pilot’s seat, while the four-year-old was strapped into a safety seat in the back of the tiny plane, reported Daily Mail online.

The 35-year-old actress who received her pilot’s licence in 2005, has already promised Shiloh lessons of her own.

The actress said in a recent interview that she encourages her eldest biological child to embrace her tomboy style.

“She wants to be a boy. So we had to cut her hair. She likes to wear boys’ everything. She thinks she’s one of the brothers. Shiloh, we feel, has Montenegro style. She dresses like a little dude. It’s how people dress there” said Jolie about her first born.

The ‘Tomb Raider’ star said that she sees much of her creative self in her daughter and encourages her to dream big.

The actress had to leave her brood in the care of Pitt for a large part of the past year while shooting her upcoming film ‘Salt’ in New York.

She plays the role of Evelyn Salt, a CIA officer accused of being a Russian spy in the action thriller.
