You just cited one dead woman pilot who was unqualified. What other female pilots are falling from the skies due to being unqualified and rushed through training? That's all.

If you knew how many women have been grounded or downed in the Navy over the past 3 years, you would not be asking me that. I dont need to mention names, because I dont intend to give my own away. However, rest assured that most bad pilots dont have to end up dead before washing out. Less than 2 percent of those entering NAVAIR male or female get into fighters. In the early 90's the Navy was under orders to get as many women into those cockpits as they could, and the Navy had to lower standards to do so. Some women made it, most did not. Many of those who did not wrote books, and one died. You can do your own research.
