Aero-News Quote of the Day

“The jet doesn’t discriminate. The jet doesn’t know who is flying it, and it will always behave the exact same way. The fighter community is an extremely performance-focused field that’s based purely on merits and tactics. I don’t consider myself a female pilot, but a pilot that happens to be a female. I’m here to do a job, and that is to make this team the best out there, inspire people to be better, and to fly the F-35 as hard as I can.”
