On a recent flight, the star had fun taking the controls of the plane for a minute, encouraged by a pilot who, contrary to expectations, was rather relaxed and was particularly pleased to have a first class passenger in the cockpit. Apparently enough to feed Britney Spears' Instagram.

“We had some turbulence but I kept the plane flying for a minute!!!,” the Toxic singer exclaimed alongside throwback photos.

Not enough to completely shock the singer, who then relaxed and picked up the pilot's glasses.

“It was so strange putting on the aviator sunglasses. I felt like I was connecting to his world for a second, and being connected is everything!!! ” she added.

Too bad Britney Spears admitted to being “short-sighted as a mole,” which may hinder her potential desire to become a pilot.
