|
||
WHEREAS, U.S. Navy Lieutenant and native Texan Arielle Ash | ||
led the Super Bowl's first all-female piloted flyover on February | ||
12, 2023; and | ||
WHEREAS, The military flyover took place in the skies above | ||
State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, before the Super Bowl LVII | ||
football game; Lieutenant Ash served as the lead pilot in a diamond | ||
formation that included two F/A-18F Super Hornets, one F-35C | ||
Lightning II, and one EA-18G Growler; she flew one of the Super | ||
Hornet fighter jets; and | ||
WHEREAS, The crew of seven female aviators made history by | ||
participating in the flyover, which commemorated 50 years of women | ||
pilots' service in the U.S. Navy; women were first admitted to the | ||
navy's flight school in 1973; the following year, six women earned | ||
their wings and became known as "The First Six"; and | ||
WHEREAS, Born in Abilene, Lieutenant Ash attended Wylie High | ||
School and graduated from Texas Tech University in 2012; and | ||
WHEREAS, Through her leadership, skill, and dedication, | ||
Arielle Ash has set an outstanding example to which others may | ||
aspire, and she is truly deserving of special recognition for her | ||
achievements in aviation; now, therefore, be it | ||
RESOLVED, That the Senate of the 88th Texas Legislature | ||
hereby congratulate Lieutenant Arielle Ash on leading the Super | ||
Bowl's first all-female piloted flyover and extend to her sincere | ||
best wishes for continued success; and, be it further | ||
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be | ||
prepared for Lieutenant Ash as an expression of high regard by the | ||
Texas Senate. |
