This individual's M.O. is essentially a bait and switch type deal. Announce (and seek publicity, sponsorships and public adoration) for what is held out to be a very admirable and brave accomplishment, mirroring previous individuals actual impressive feats in aviation. Does not deliver a core element of what was promised to the funders and public at large, including impressionable youth particularly girls, but bull****s that she has. When irrefutable facts surface showing that she's full of sh$t, instead of fessing up she doubles down on the porky's by issuing a statement that contained verbal gymnastics that would make Bill Clinton and Gerry Adams blush. Realizing that ain't going to work either resorts to a close cousin of the "Patriotism, the last refuge of a scoundrel " routine by retroactively claiming her prime focus all along was charitable and human betterment by posting a long list of potential beneficiaries of her trips but with no hard commitments or numbers.

I couldn't give a monkeys she managed to finagle multiple dream trips doing what she obviously loves by using a bunch of hedge funders, corporate giants and half assed royals, well done I say, go do it and enjoy yourself. But dressing up the faked human endeavor part as being done in the name of inspiring youth and helping people is deceitful, pure and simple.
