Why would we ever need women flying Blackhawk helicopters?

If tomorrow, it was made illegal for women to operate blackhawk helicopters. Can anyone name one measurable way that it would weaken this country?

Because it is 2025 and women are equal?

It would deprive burger bearcat from an opportunity, though.

Let the best pilots fly them, regardless of gender or race. If a woman is good at it, so be it.

You think men and women have the same military capabilities?

Because we're "enlightened" and "tolerant" and "progressive"...and all the other useless concepts and buzzwords tossed around by people who have no clue about the military.

women have qualities that are better than men, in some accords.

Women, however, are far too emotional, and too many "feelings" to be in positions that require the ability to make very tough decisions that may go against those "feelings". They also should not be in combat, nor in positions that require the ability to handle high stress situations. There are exceptions, but that is just facts. God made us differently.

THATS BECAUSE THEY ARE WOMEN!! That is why we’re saying we need male pilots because men are taller.

It’s easy to see in these responses who’s never watched Courage Under Fire.

FWIW, according to Wikipedia, here is the commander of the unit involved, the 12th Aviation Battalion:
