It's sad that the young woman died.  I feel sad for her family and friends who have lost a loved one.  It does sound kinda like an unnecessary death but I guess she knew the risks when she decided to become a fighter pilot.  It seems like a dangerous profession and like these things could easily happen.  I guess they could easily be avoided just by avoiding this career altogether but anyway.  It is what it is.  Very sad anytime a person dies.
