She was honoured as a "model" pilot in March 2010 and showed a "rare calm" to land her plane safely after it was struck by 18 pigeons. I don't know.....does that qualify you to fly into outer space? I mean really 18? Pigeons? We had a guy take out that many Canadians and he did ok! And which one of you is the man? The one on the right is cute!

Of course, to get your signoff for IFR re-entries here in the US you have to take out 18 Texans. The Canadians are good practice but are often too skinny to be a good test.
