You have it backwards. There were males that crashed under those higher standards. And had males back then trained under today’s standards, there would have been FAR more of them dead.

Those crashes were IN SPITE of higher standards. Using today’s standards, lowered for diversity, it would have been abysmally more.

Which I guess means that since 1996 U.S. Naval Aviation must have been a blood-bath what with all those women and lower standards and all. But I haven't seen any statistics supporting that. Do you have any?
