Me too! I feel sorry for the family; I noticed one picture of her with another woman with their arms around each other smiling on the beach. When I was young you could do that with your friend without people asserting that you were a lesbian, as some articles are supposing. I can see why they tried to scrub the social media accounts, we hear on the internet can be brutal.

Being assigned to the Ft Belvoir VIP transport unit is quite a feather in one’s career. Apparently this lady was selected, not for her superb flying skills but because the Xao BuyDem White House made a few calls and the staff wussies at Pentagon Aviation Branch personnel office wanted to appease the higher ups.

And then her unit Commander screwed up by putting her into an environment where she was untrained. Note that she may have been a great aviator at one time but flying a social Secretary type desk in the WH is not an indicator that her skills were fully current.

While this is not in reality a DEI type of Didn’t Earn It assignment, it is the equivalent of one.

She obviously Didn’t Earn It…. not by her flying skills, which is all that matters in such a perilous flight environment.

There is a lot of political BS that goes on in Mordor on the Potomac for both men and women. What is a CO going to do If the President appoints someone to your squadron? The thing is, the other pilot was a 1,000 hour check pilot sitting right next to her with his own set of controls. A check pilot should never let stuff get that far out of control. And some of the earlier comms are strange; the return to base and land at Dulles calls from ATC that were ignored much earlier. Weird, but then it is Mordor.
