Roger, you're so right.
She was the first French woman test pilot, and maybe also the first woman with a formal FAA(?) test pilot license.
She did fly a few 'hairy' aircraft.
But indeed nothing like Hanna Reitsch flying the V1 "Reichenberg", or the Me-163, or a very early Focke-Wulf helicopter
before the war!
