She only had like 1500 hours flight time...????

Mission specialist.

Barely more than the requirement for an ATP...

There is more to being in the shuttle than being a pilot.

My 2... Political correctness run amok. An Astronaut with only 1500

NASA is meant to be more about science than the military.

I bet my paycheck against anybody's that the "Mercury 7" all had WAY more
than any 1500 hours. Moreover, I bet that the males in her class all had
way more than any 1500 hours.

Get with the program, you're talking how many decades ago?

Hell, I had over 6000 hours before I ever flew an airplane with a copilot,
or for that matter an autopilot.

What a hero, now tell us about how you learnt to fly using wing warping.
