[Mr. Jeeves]

She had 1,422 hours of flying total, which is below the Federal Aviation Administration minimum to be a commercial pilot.

She was able to fly commercially with a special exception from the FAA because she had a specific aviation degree and received a waiver...

But that's kind of an MSM lie by omission, because only 1,250 hours are required if one has a bachelor's degree in aviation from an FAA-approved school.

The issue here isn't her total hours of flying time but her hours in and familiarity with the aircraft type, especially in bad weather. One can be a competent pilot in a smaller aircraft and still have trouble handling a larger aircraft in crosswinds.
