4K. F-16 Viper Demo Team. Female Pilot Captain Aimee "Rebel" Fiedler. Travis AFB. 2022

I saw her fly at the New York airshow. She really tore it up and flew the wings off that thing. Huge respect!

[@denisodom8599]

Absolutely assume !! Semper Fi !! And she is gorgeous !

[@foxielebel830]

Met Mrs. Aimee at Volaria in Mirabel, sweet person and I truly appreciate the moment. She is just great as a F16 pilot. I will try to see another air show in the state. She signed our viper t-shirt and we took pictures. She made my day! Thanks

The Viper still looks really modern and impressive, it’s such an iconic and beautiful aircraft.

You should see the newer ones with the conformal tanks bad,ass looking piece of machinery.

[@Dstew57A]

Well…that is because they have updated it

[@44excalibur]

Why do people keep calling it a Viper when its actual name is Fighting Falcon?

[@airshowguy916]

@@44excalibur because the pilots have called it Viper for a very long name. The Super Hornet is known as the Rhino.

[@charlesbeckham7746]

I see my dad whenever I see an F-16, my dad worked for General Dynamics / Lockheed for his second career after serving 20 years active in the Navy. He started in Fort Worth, Tx at GD in 1976. Then in the mid 80's he went to Edwards AFB to work on R&D for avionics/weapons systems, he then retired in early 2006 then passed late 2006. It is great to see the Falcons still flying to this day.

[@airshowguy916]

I would just like to tell the Air Force that you did our country justice by putting in female pilots. These ladies are incredible athletes and I am grateful to my country for putting them in a beautiful aircraft. Continue success.

[@waistgunner3930]

"Did justice"? 🤣😣😒 Yeah, right. They've only helped to bring this country to its knees...(very many of us would rather be defended by robots than some egotistical..."skirts"). This is the result of our armed forces having been infected by split-tails.

[@AngelRaphaelbrokenhero]

❤❤❤❤❤ awsome very brave!!

[@DefinitelyNotEmma]

As someone who wants to join the Luftwaffe and eventually fly the Typhoon this is pretty inspiring. In the cockpit it really doesn't matter who you are, all that matters is one's own talent and the aircraft itself.

[@tommaxwell429]

@Eternal Peace Yeah, you’re probably right. Can’t imagine why anyone would ever consider becoming a fighter pilot. That has got to be one of the most boring and hated jobs in the world. We should discourage our children from ever considering a career in military aviation.

[@carlonardi8534]

@Eternal Peace AND THTS A GOOD RESON WHY FEMALE SHOULDNOTBE ALLOWED IN FIGHTER ,SPECIALLY IF CARING FOR THEIR LONG HAIR.. MAN WITH LONG HAIR WOULDNEVER BE ALLOWED TO ENTER IN F16 COCKPIT. ALLOWNG FEMALES IN FIGHTER S HAS BEEN HORRIBLE MISTAKE JUST TO PLEASE THOSE SILLY POLITICALLY CORRECT ELECTIONS 0RIENTED PRINCIPLES

[@starga-fr7qx]

@Eternal Peace pretty sure its pretty glorious cause they all say it really is. the less glorious part is the non flying part, because pilots are officers and have a lot of secondary jobs on the ground, like maintenance officer , training officer and i don't know what other stuff that needs admin work done when they aren't flying.

[@cynthiagass5590]

Such a lovely "young lady". Amazing that she can "fly like that". We seem to think "female" pilots are still an "oddity".

Gotta love the F-16. One of those jets you strap on instead of climb into.

[@rickbear7249]

Well, as I was watching her clambering into that F-16, I was actually thinking "that's some gymnastics!". Even the ladder was swaying everywhere. Actually more difficult than clambering into the AH-64 AAC APACHE attack helicopter (where you have an overhead bar, to haul yourself up and swing into the cockpit). A fascinating video for showing how she gets into the cockpit. Thank you.

Love the Air Force. In the Navy we have the Alert 5. It’s where the pilot, in hostile areas, camps in the cockpit on the catapult, so that the plane can be in the air in five minutes from a cold start. Air Force takes a little longer. It’s a little more chill.

So evidently, those south korean pilots have no ejection option.
