Good thing they identified her as a female pilot. Because that was relevant. "The male pilot..." said no one.
I see your point, BUT I think they were pointing out that SHE was the pilot and not the other guy. Calling her "the" female pilot is one way of doing that.
Also true.. but they could have just as easily said... "the pilot"

It's a little over 2nm from the airport, near 4th Avenue. I work in the area. I'm certainly interested in hearing about the details when they come out.
