Her death might

Also jesus christ, I actually looked at the report the article links to that was filled out about this, it is 47 pages, and officially reports her being ‘disoriented’ though there is no indication she was actually disoriented in any capacity; she didn’t communicate with the crew chief that she was allegedly told to talk to prior to doing her testing, and then she just proceeded to not pay attention during testing and wandered into the damn thing’s propeller

They also apparently didn’t brief everyone on a ‘kill testing’ phrase, so another strike against workplace safety lmao

On the GCS audio recordings during the pre-start checklist [shortly before the incident], MTD (test director) and MP (pilot) could be heard moving rapidly through the checklist (Tabs N-8 to N-9). In addition, conversation in the GCS included comments like, “C’mon guys, the quicker you respond the faster we get out of here"

lmao, every Air Force bozo prolly got a safety briefing because of this
