"but what exactly has she done in the cockpit?"

We don't know, but as a current CPL, even if she only flies Piper and Cessna singles, she would be perfectly capable of setting the flaps and lowering the gear at the PF's command, handling all comm with approach and local controls, and being an extra set of eyes. Which in fact much of what the PNF does anyway.
