Most of it was from my flight training. Ten years ago, I was watching TV in my bedroom one day before my flight training began and I saw the second airplane hit the World Trade Center. Then I got the call saying I no longer had a job. My career was destroyed. I had no place to go and ended up moving into my car. I read newspapers to look for a job and I was offered one, which offered me $75,000 a year. But I decided to make a change. I wanted to receive flight training and become a pilot. It was my dream. So I refused the job and chose to work part time. It sounded unbelievable to do such a thing. It was even more so because I was over the age of thirty, but I was determined to make my dream come true. I left the state of Virginia and ended up in Las Vegas. Though I made about $25,000 a year at that time, I was severely in debt because the fees for training were high. I was living in my truck and sleeping in parking garages. I didn't plan for my life to take this direction, but I insisted on my training. Then at last my world changed and my dream came true. I finally became a pilot. The passengers that I flew had more money in their pocket than I had in the bank. I hated myself and was worried about my situation, but I never gave up. I kept paying back the debt and I kept saving in the bank. And finally, I paid off my credit card debt. Today, I am a skilled airline pilot based in Milwaukee. I wrote in my spare time. My autobiography (自传) has been published, which sells well. That is my first book, but it won't be my last one. 26.

With strong support from both women and men, Rankin became the first woman in history elected to that body.
