Female Fighter Pilots Teach Us to Spread Our Wings | Allison Cappelaere Righter | TEDxLeonardtown
U.S. Navy Lieutenant Valerie Cappelaere Delaney was an inspirational leader and naval aviator. Following her tragic death, her legacy became an integral link in the chain that bonds female aviators. Her story is told by Allison Righter, who knew Valerie as both a hero and big sister. Through Allison and her family's work, Valerie’s legacy continues to inspire young women to spread their wings and soar. Mrs. Allison Cappelaere Righter, a Nutrition Instructor at the Culinary Institue of America and Maryland native, started the Wings for Val Foundation in 2013 in honor of her sister, Lieutenant Valerie Cappelaere Delaney. Valerie was a Navy fighter pilot who died in a training mission at the age of 26. After her sister's death, nearly 200 female military aviators sent in their coveted aviator wings to honor her sacrifice and celebrate the collective strength of all women aviators. This overwhelming response prompted Allison and her family to start the Wings for Val Foundation as a way to carry on Val's incredible legacy. The Foundation supports other women pursuing careers in aviation. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
