It would be nice to be back in an AT-6 again, for the first time ever.

Thanks for reminding me about the grammatical error.

Wasn't my intention.
Eileen Collins entered the U.S. Air Force through the Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) at Syracuse University in 1978 and began pilot training as one of the first women at Vance Air Force Base selected to be evaluated as pilots of military aircraft. Upon completing the course in 1979, she became a T-38 jet trainer instructor pilot—the second woman to do so and the only woman T-38 flight instructor at that base. Her next assignment was commander and instructor pilot for the C-141 transport aircraft; she flew troops and evacuated civilians during operations in Grenada in 1983, earning combat pay and a medal even though women were not yet officially allowed to fly in combat.
Collins then taught mathematics and was an instructor pilot at the Air Force Academy, before being admitted to Air Force Test Pilot School in 1989. A major in rank at the time, she was the senior member, and thus the leader, of her class—the first woman ever in that role. Collins was the second woman to graduate from this test pilot school, and NASA immediately selected her for the astronaut corps. Her 11-year trajectory as a military pilot was possible only because of policy changes in the 1970s that opened military pilot training, pilot assignments, and test pilot schools to women aviators. She came through the pipeline as soon as it was possible to do so.
