You go, girl!!!

For the first time in 52-years, the Air Force "Thunderbirds," will have a female pilot. Capt. Nicole Malachowski joins the 2006 Thunderbird team as the first female demonstration pilot on any U.S. military high performance jet team.

Of course, the moment she crashes (heaven forbid), much teeth-gnashing will be done about whether women are up to the job, something that never occurs when men crash.
