Yes and you are correct. She was just coming off a White House job and was out of the flying game. Left the white house when Trump came in and they were trying to spin her back up into flying and get her current again.
I bet there is a very good chance she left the White House position two weeks ago when Trump came in.
In the larger sense, she was “substandard” at that moment and needed to be brought back up to skill level.

They do, BUT, if I deem their directions as unsafe, I can ignore them. I just need to be able to show them if they come knocking-what they really do is tell you to call them- Once I hear that, I tell them to save the tapes. I’ve had to call them a few times, but in all instances they either apologized or wanted to my take on their communications and see how it affected my operations.

Do we know if she was on any psychotropic medications with suicide side effects?
Unfortunately the ATC personnel assigned to the radio frequency for the helicopter flyway had been allowed to go home by the supervisor, essentially leaving the helo flyway unmanned by ATC. Heads need to roll all around here.
Was she advanced for her homosexuality?
He had the authority to order the CRJ to go around when he saw the helicopter on radar flying out of its assigned corridor a full minute before the impact.
Well I can say 1000% if one of the pilots was a white guy, that is who they would say was flying the chopper.
So far, no white guy blamed. They are kind of stumped how to figure out who to blame was flying and effed it massively.
“Highly experienced crew”
Experienced at what, exactly?
This disaster has more questions than answers. This is beginning to smell like everyone suspected.
Causes: civil rights and social action. Human rights. etc.
Virtue Signaling for her cult. This is beginning to sound like another agency scandal.
While she may have had the proficiency to be a pilot, I find it hard to believe she was the best available person for the job.
Sure sounds like it.
Once again, Trump calls it right away, lefty heads explode.
Just like lesbian firefighters who cannot lift 50 lbs.
One of the big issues is Blackhawk availability. Blackhawks are maintenance intensive as are all helicopters. Average 3 hours of maintenance per hour of flight time.
A significant portion of its operational time is dedicated to upkeep, with preventative checks occurring every 40 flight hours and larger "phase maintenance" inspections happening every 360 flight hours.
Fort Rucker has high standards and in my view, they do not graduate unqualified pilots.
