Well, yeah, there is a good chance because it only takes one person in your party of four to get one of the two piloting positions. (Left pilot is easier.) Then, if it isn't her, the other person trades with her. It's possible that if there's a party of two in front of you, they'll get assigned the two pilot roles, leaving you guys the other four spots, but if any of you are in the front for assignments, you'll get pilot.
I also saw a few people wait to get pilot or to avoid it. The CMs were more accommodating than I would have expected, since you can see the issue if every party says they want to wait for pilot.
