I have know women pilots from two camps: 1. True pilot, mind of a pilot, probably more qualified and capable than her male peers. Some of the best out there. 2. The woman that became a pilot because someone wanted her to get her license.
a. Most of these do no go on to careers. b. Many of them do not stay current. c. I suspect they don’t have the best decision making or troubleshooting skills in a pinch. d. Some get rattled when things go sideways. Not sure if the above applies to guys or not. It is just that I have personally known both types of women pilots. I would not want to face the first in a dogfight.

Whatever the situation, if the mountains and the earth attached to them suddenly get very large, the plane doesn’t care who’s flying it, or used to be. Dirt matters.

The requirements to be a commercial pilot are the SAME for all races and genders. Stop parroting what the alt right is saying. There will be an investigation. They probably check for intoxication, enough sleep, distractions, etc. If they're both straight, white males, then what? What does Maga have to say about that? Mistakes, crime, whatever are bad no matter who the person is. Why does the right always bring race, sexuality, ethnicity, gender into everything? It's weird and cult like behavior.
