The Females Bucking The Trend In The Male-dominated Arena Of Fighter Pilots

Two females are bucking the trend in the male-dominated arena of fighter pilots.

Historically, U.S. Air Force Fighter Pilots were male, but the future looks a lot different as more females join the ranks of these career fields and make history while they do it.

Recently, Capt.

Emily "Banzai" Thompson, an F-35A Lightning II Pilot made history as she flew in combat, making her the first female to do so in that airframe.

And, starting with the 2020 Air Show Season, Capt.

Kristin “BEO” Wolfe will lead the new F-35A Lightning II demonstration team.
