- Amelia Earhart is a still un-caused crash.
The reason they would not let her pilot the plane on the flight for which she got the ticker tape parade is that she could not safely pilot the plane for which she got the ticker tape parade. That they would not let her fly it, despite extreme pressure to do so, suggests that if the had let her fly it, she would have gotten killed all the faster. If unsafe to let her fly one plane, unsafe to let her fly another very similar plane.
- Kara Hultgreen died because she was a crappy pilot
They have been looking for a female pilot for the navy ever since they had aircraft carriers. In all these years, could not find one, so, under ever increasing pressure to include women, decided to go with Kara Hultgreen, because she was the best, which is to say the least bad they could find. PC killed Amelia Earhart, and PC killed Kara Hultgreen. Similarly, successful businesses stuff all their female executives into HR, keeping them away from decisions that could screw up the business. In due course, we will have non flying navy pilots with same uniforms and honors as flying navy pilots, and all the female pilots will be non flying. All the naval pilots that actually fly will be given girly uniforms. Emasculation will be required in order to provide a more female friendly environment for the non flying pilots.
