If you want to add a good twist to the book I would let her go to aviation school where she can excel and become the best at what she wants to do. She might not end up flying in the end, but could go off and become someone famous. You can also add another twist to this book that once she graduates school and to go on and design a super airplane that she enlists in the Air Force to head up the aviation school there. She can become a flight instructor and learn how to fly at the same time. This person could do great things like design the best flight simulator of all times, help to design a new fighter plane with her experiences she has gained from school and the Air Force. But before joining the Air Force I would suggest that she goes to aviation school first and gets some knowledge behind her about flight and how it all works. Then she can go on to be famous.
