The new Air Force policy allows aircrew members to request to fly during pregnancy, with no waiver required through the second trimester for uncomplicated pregnancies in non-ejection seat aircraft.
ABILENE, Texas – U.S. Air Force Maj. Lauren Olme is one of the first pilots to take advantage of a new policy that allows pregnant pilots to stay in the cockpit longer.She said in a statement fromthat she was “honored to be one of the first to fly in an ejection seat aircraft while pregnant.”
The new policy opens the door for pregnant aviators to continue logging flight hours so they don’t fall behind on their career progress due to pregnancy, according to Armstrong. Baby Olme is one of the first at the Department of Defense to log 9.2 hours in a supersonic aircraft. She met her husband, Maj. Mark Olme, 7th Operations Support Squadron bomb wing weapons officer, while attending the Air Force Academy.
