Lucy was commissioned an ensign in the U.S. Navy in 1976 and attained her Naval Aviator Wings of Gold the following year. She advanced aviation as the first woman to qualify in Naval air combat maneuvering, the first female TA-4J Skyhawk flight instructor, and the first female FAA test pilot. She retired as a Captain from the Naval Reserve in 1998 and the airline industry in 2019 but continues to fly as a pilot for Cape Air, based in Hyannis, Massachusetts.
