I also find it unnecessary to say someone is "female" or "Christian" or a "boy scout" when something bad happens because you know those terms are used to belittle and deride, not descriptive...
Female pilots fly the aircraft while doing their hair and makeup.....
“”There arent nearly as many female airline pilots today as there are male, and the number of female pilots who successfully navigate problems in the air and safely land a plane thats under distress, its not very many. So its unique. “”
He answered the question the only way possible...Unique and rare - that’s female pilots. Why do the military ones always get referred to as “female”? Same reason...
Shes an “Aviator”. Nuff said.
One pic I saw while on decent, showed the cowling, before it tore off, hanging over the wing near the root. Thats gotta mess with the handling, and indeed, the article stated that the plane went into a 41 degree roll straight away.
This wasnt a flame out, or compressor stall, situation. Flight dynamics were compromised.
I’ve always heard this as:
1-Aviate.
2-Navigate.
3.Communicate.
This irony is probably lost on ole Bev due to her "outrage" of labeling women...women.
Eight decades after Amelia Earhart made history, let's celebrate today's women pilots
Not to mention...she and her partner recently crashed an airplane...(partner was pilot, she was passenger of co-owned aeroplane).
NTSB: Fuel issue, loss of engine power led to plane crash-landing in Meriden last month
Tammy is a good pilot. I recall when she came through the flight simulators and ...
Thank you, very good to hear some inside scoop.
And so much the better when it is positive.
Yeah that’s cute and all but the audio with ATC has her talking.
“en route from New York to Dallas, Shults calmly informed air traffic control about the problems and arranged for emergency crews to meet her plane at its new destination.”
It is unusual for the captain, the flyer, to bother with comm in an emergency.....highly unusual
Pilot. Not woman pilot. Agreed.
I guess not all snowflakes are college students. I doubt that many males are fascinated by by hero pilots just because they are females.
The interest factor is entirely due to fact that there are so few of them. Not every human has the abitities to become a competent one. The newsworthiness is the rarity, not the sex.
I am not female but I have always envied pilots who are able to dominate monster aircraft like the 747.
When the news circulated that there were a half dozen female pilots who routinely fly C5As worlwide for the Air Force I made it a point of finding videos of them doing their jobs, and wishing that I had had the right stuff to even try.
The fact that thousands of men do the same thing, just doesn't seem as newsworthy to me.
The author is offended that the pilot was recognized in the press as a female pilot.
The author also belongs to a club that is only for female pilots.
Are logical disconnects a female thing? /s
Im offended that everyone seems so offended these days...
...what a mess our children will deal with.
It has gotten pretty ridiculous.
I like to offend people by not being offended by anything.
It works very well! lol
Not for a female...they’ll talk all the way through the troubles they are handling(emotional reinforcement) even handling well! Her communications were working so she chatted!
>>>Somebody, somewhere, is always offended by something.<<<
You are so right, and it’s getting very tiresome. Sigh.
Correct
Correct. Nicely stated.
So, Tammie Jo WAS the pilot. We DO know the co-pilot’s name. Why can’t you just admit you were mistaken?
