Need advice re UA PQ$$$ requirement workaround

Re Mrs. CO FF:
(1) What is your home airport? LAX
(2) What types of fares do you usually buy ? Cheap Y for most; occasional C for longhaul
(3) How many miles do you usually fly each year? 25k-50k
(4) Do you have any kind of status at present? What is it? AA Gld
(5) What is most important to you in a FFP? E+ UA seating
(6) Which routes do you fly most often? Domestic transcon
(7) Preferred Airlines They all stink...
(8) Do you travel for work or pleasure? Most travel is biz

Slightly unusual facts here: we have 2 longhaul C trips in 2015 (2 segments on AC & 6 on LH) for a total of 38,000 BIS miles. None of the tix are on United's 016 stock. So, the purchases generate no PQDs.

Is there any way to parlay this into *G status for her, and get her E+ eligibility?
