Lauren Sanchez will begin 2024 with great anticipation as she will be bestowed with the Living Legends of Aviation's Elling Halvorson Vertical Flight Hall of Fame Award. 

Along with a hundred other people, the creator of Black Ops Aviation will receive recognition for their outstanding contributions to the fields of aerospace and aviation.

Former pop news reporter and news anchor Lauren Sanchez is the CEO and helicopter pilot of Black Ops Aviation, an aerial film company that she started.

In an interview with the Hollywood Reporter, Sanchez revealed that her love for helicopter flying overcame her dyslexia via intense study and training. 

"I wish I could spend my entire life in a helicopter. With so much going on in life, it can get rather chaotic. You enter an energy area as you lift off that is exclusive to you. It's soothing. Up there, I'm contentment personified. This is where I should be, I think to myself," she remarked.

Sanchez posted a picture of herself landing a new helicopter for the first time during her helicopter training in 2022. 

The photo showed her thumb with the throttle's round impression on it. She added "First time landing in a different helicopter #training" and "IYKUK" over the photo.

Jeff Bezos and Sanches live together and also work together. They’ve been dating for the last several years — since 2019. The American media personality helps run the Bezos Earth Fund.
