Came across this on youtube yesterday. A woman who is command pilot in a Blackhawk and co-pilot in a Chinook at age 19. That's good going by anyone's standards - respect.

 

Of course it helps that her dad and uncle own Billings Flying Service and she started flying at 13 but hey, still a more than respectable achievement. I'll bet she's a heck of a good pilot as well having started so young.
