How many woman are in NavyAv and in F-14s? I know there are some very capable woman pilots out there. But they don’t seem to find there way into these position. Think there smarter than the figureheads Fembots send out to break barriers.
I was in the first Navy squadron to test the implementation of woman into seaduty back in 79
We had the a few that were capable, More that tried hard ( I’m sorry but a 100 lb girl is not going to pick up 150 lbs and fling it like a guy) And a number.. well no matter how cute they tried to be the Aircraft didn’t care. And then what do you do when your trying to bitch one out for doing a job wrong and they start crying on you.
Over all I’m supportive woman in the military but not in combat or on ships or how they have is setup now.
Then you put “don’t ask don’t tell on top of that. It’s no wonder everyone I knew that stayed in got out after Billarey became C&C
A line from the book Crossed Currents (It’s about woman in the Navy from 1917 to present)
Woman felt safer sleeping in the mens barracks that in there own! Because of aggressive lesbians in there own.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/fr/577009/postsThere are 2 women flying Tomcats that I know of, but I cant tell you how many are training in the pipeline right now. The Tomcat is being retired, so there wont be much of a line, and women are failing at Hornets. Many women are flying CODs, Helos and other boring stuff though. I'll check in tomorrow, but I'm outta here for the evening.
