It's kind of crazy to imagine, but pregnant supermodel Gisele Bundchen will soon be flying the friendly skies in a helicopter -- and she'll be in the pilot seat.

While most of us are just trying to stay awake during our last months of pregnancy, Gisele is well on her way to becoming an official pilot. According to E! Online, Mrs. Tom Brady has already passed a written test and is flying with an instructor two to four times a week.

"She needs to take the practical test with the examiner in the helicopter, basically a check ride," Keith Douglass, president of Shoreline Aviation in Marshfield, Mass. said "She's almost to that point. She is terrific. She does a fantastic job."

But is it safe for Gisele to be whizzing through the air with a baby on board? "If you are comfortable and the doctor says it's OK, she can fly until the end of the pregnancy," Douglass said. "Helicopters don't go very high or very far, so she is around."

Let's just hope she doesn't go into labor while in flight!
