Pioneer Pilots Meet
|
|
| Two generations of pioneer pilots met at the McChord AFB, Washington, Air Expo on 20 July. Dorothy Olsen, a pilot with the Women Airforce Service Pilots, was introduced to Capt. Jammie Jamieson, the first operational and combat-ready woman F-22 pilot. Olsen, who recently turned ninety-two, primarily flew such fighter aircraft as the P-51 and the P-38 from 1943 through the end of World War II. Jamieson, who flew a Raptor to the show for static display, is a 2000 graduate of the Air Force Academy. She is currently stationed at Elmendorf AFB, Alaska, where she is the mobility flight commander for the 525th Fighter Squadron. |
