I had some things to say on the history of women in aviation. colleenmondor.substack.com/p/28-a-femal...

#28: A female pilot got her period in 1929 and it set back women in aviation forever
Let’s get serious about the reason why there are so few women in aviation.

An unnamed recruiter keeps reaching out to me and seems nice enough but their companies LinkedIn paraphrased is: “you’re probably not tough enough”, “we have no work life balance - can you cut it?” and “it’s tough but we support each other like a family”. It almost seems like a parody. 🚩 🚩 🚩

Great question. I currently work on the Aero side but in school I focused on the Astro side. I’ve worked in the Astro side but always find myself back in Aero. So maybe Aero but it’s close.

Oh god. A bunch. Haha I look so bad because this was after multiple days working in a super hot hangar. I was shocked when they asked if we wanted to get a picture.

It was crazy though because I’d just drive all over the base and find the most random and completely open things. I thought I crossed a line once because I got pulled over but they thought I was a SpaceX guest that didn’t have base access and they ended up escorting me to the thing I was trying to
