This was sad!   Being one of four fighter jet pilots who are female is a pretty big deal so she definitely accomplished a lot.  I guess the hope would be that others could learn from this tragedy.  Whether it was an issu with the jet itself or a lack of training, hopefully they can figure out what caused this tragedy so it can be prevented in the future.  I feel sad for her family and loved ones who lost a close friend.  Very sad and it sounded like she was a good person too.
