What are we doing here with all this?
How many women are there that actually care about being pilots? Can’t you just blow those women up in a field or something to prevent them from taking expensive planes with them?
The US navy identified on Monday the two crew members who died last week in a fighter-jet crash near Mount Rainier as two 31-year-old female aviators from California.
Lt Cdr Lyndsay P Evans, a naval flight officer, and Lt Serena N Wileman, a naval aviator, died when their EA-18G Growler jet from the Electronic Attack Squadron, known as “Zappers”, crashed east of Mount Rainier last Tuesday during a training flight, according to Whidbey Island Naval Air Station.
Evans of Palmdale, California, made history as part of a team of female pilots who conducted the first-ever all-female flyover of Super Bowl LVII on 12 Feburary 2023, to celebrate 50 years of women flying in the navy, Steve Fiebing, a navy spokesperson, told the Associated Press.

An aerial crew located the wreckage the day after the crash at about 6,000ft (1,828 metres) in a remote, steep and heavily wooded area east of Mount Rainier, officials said.
Navy officials declared the aviators dead on Sunday and said they’ve switched from search and rescue to recovery operations.
…
The cause of the crash remains under investigation.
Yeah, well.
We actually do not need an investigation.
We’re all very familiar with the nature of woman drivers.
