She may have a pilot slot for after she’s done at Harvard but is definitely not a pilot yet. Pilot training itself lasts 2 years before you get to your actual plane.
She’s wearing pilot wings, so she’s at least completed flight training and gotten pinned. And she’s in a F-16, so she’s at least selected and at her Air Force training squadron.

She's not wearing pilot wings. Those are wings that Academy Cadets can wear once they've received a slot for pilot training. ROTC Cadets get the same thing. Also, you can see there is no rank on the shoulders of her flight suit, so those phots are pre-commissioning. Last, those photos were probably taken when she got an incentive ride during her "Ops Air Force" tour where selected Academy and ROTC Cadets can go to an operational unit for a few weeks to get a sneak peak into what it means to be in the actual AF.

She ain’t a pilot. And anyone can get a fam ride in an F16.
You aren’t commissioning, completing upt, and attending Harvard to get a masters in public policy inside of 2 years.
Also, they aren’t sending anyone to school for two years in between upt and upgrade training.

Scratch that, inside of a year. She’s class of 2023.
She has a pilot slot. Graduated this past summer, and went to Harvard while hitting the pageant trail. She ain’t a fighter pilot.
