[ChuckMK23]

Not really current news (Mod feel free to move) - This was 4 years ago - but just saw it none the less. Who knew there was so much celebrity potential in the Hornet community!

Did it in a C-12 once and came back the next day. Thanks but no thanks. I can’t imagine doing it in a C-172. Woof.

Well done sir, well done indeed.

Did she take it 4 wheeling too? Or is it called 3 wheeling....

Details please . . .

She ended her Navy career as an Intel O. I don't know exactly why...she was a 97 Academy grad, so even my Skipper is too young to know very many details. We actually talked about her yesterday while I was on duty because she was on FOX talking about the shut down.

Fact: She is extremely good looking.

Flying skills on & around the boat?

I don't know many details, but a former skipper of mine was in her airwing as a JO. He didn't seem to care for her personally and the feeling I got was that she was a liability around the ship (and potentially just in a jet in general). As was eluded to, the old Pilot to Intel lat transfer is generally not by choice.

I did it in a slower aircraft, a Bowers Fly Baby...best flying trip I have ever had, hands down. Real flying, cool little airports, constant need for solid airmanship.

I’ve known several women who were a “liability” around the ship / command, doesn’t mean they were shitty aviators though. Sounds like she could have been both however. . . . . .
