A Team Of All Women Pilots Is The First Ever To Fly Over The Super Bowl

At this year’s Super Bowl on Sunday, for the first time ever, the famous pregame flyover was performed by an all-female team of pilots. The National Football League (NFL) noted in a tweet that the historic first honors the 50th anniversary of women serving as aviators in the United States Navy.

According to CBS News, there are currently approximately 15 percent of female pilots serving in the United States Navy. The seven female pilots flew in a diamond formation above the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, which is hosting an NFL game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles.

We are able to see further because others went before us. According to a tweet from the outreach account of the Department of Defense, one of the ladies who took part in the flyover, Lieutenant Caitlin Perkowski, stated that “We stand on the shoulders of giants. There’s a lot of people who make what we do possible…this is for them,”

The accomplishment of the women was lauded by Representative Mikie Sherrill (D-New Jersey), who had previously served as a helicopter pilot in the Navy.
