Lt. Col. Christine Mau is no stranger to making history. She entered the Air Force after graduating from the United States Air Force Academy in 1997, just four years after combat exclusion was lifted from aviation positions allowing women to fly in combat. She became part of the select community of fighter pilots after pilot training and remains among the small percentage of women who pilot fighter aircraft today. Lt. Col. Mau will discusses her journey accumulating more than 2,300 hours in the F-15E and F-35A.
