Open Character, created by Rob Kelk
Ramona Jackson is an aircraft engineer, licenced jet pilot, military historian, and dedicated pacifist. She also strongly believed her mother's father's stories about how the aircraft he helped build in the 1950s would have changed Canadian flight forever if the government hadn't shut the project down, so when handwavium appeared, she and two of her friends spent three years building a replica Avro Arrow on a bet. (The bet was that if they built it, she'd be brave enough to take it into space. She won.)
While she's normally serious, Ramona does have an impish streak to her personality. She always keeps her word, and she loves her family. Occasionally, she says things that she shouldn't.
Ramona is expert in military equipment trivia, holds a jet-pilot licence, and knows enough about military engineering to keep Avril flying.
