I am speaking to their ability as pilots. And the assumption that was made that any woman chosen would presumptively be a lesser pilot. My point is that there is nothing particularly unsuitable about women for flying planes, and that they have a few aspects that in fact make them good for the job. That is not a statement that women can do anything a man can do. Yes, men serve us well as pilots. So do women.
I don't know what you mean about the EP3 decision process re: landing versus ditching and it doesn't matter. A woman being there and a decision being made that you think was a bad one are not related except by proximity.
I have never seen GI Jane.

Didn't say that..
Lesser combat pilot in my opinion. Lesser combat anything, afaiac.
I don't think women belong in combat in planes, jeeps, air balloons, tanks, boats, hang gliders or shopping carts regardless of anything.
But, I don't want to fight about it. If you feel differently, I will be happy to simply not agree.
