JESSICA DUBROFF
1988-1996
            Jessica Dubroff, 7, was an American trainee pilot who died attempting to be the youngest person to fly a light aircraft across America. On the tragic day, she was accompanied with her flight instructor, Joe Reid and her father Lloyd Dubroff.
            Jessica was born in Falmouth, Massachusetts, US and moved to San Francisco. She grew up not owning toys, not permitted to watch TV and didn’t enrol in a school. She started taking flight lessons from Reid on her 6th birthday and was an enthusiast. She had over 33 hours flight training, and even though the media labelled Jessica a pilot, she wasn’t legally to be a pilot due to her age, the minimum age requeirement is 17. Whilst on flights, Reid had to be on the controls during flights in a dual yoke flight arrangement. She and Reid would be on the controls at the front and her father Lloyd at the back.
            The trio arranged a "Sea to Shining Sea" flight which was promoted as a bogus ‘record attempt’ due to her young age. Reid considered the flight as simply flying with a child sitting next to him and her parents paying for it. The flight sparked a lot of media coverage and Jessica became an instant celebrity.
            On 11 April 1996 they had knowledge of the forecast weather conditions in Cheyenne Regional Airport. As they were boarding their plane as it was raining but her father stated that they could ‘beat the storm’ which was approaching. Despite the conditions becoming worse, Reid decided to go ahead with the flight and took off at 8:24am despite reduced visibility. The plane lifted off, climbed slowly and was wobbly, the plane then fell rapidly crashing onto a road in a neighbourhood in front of somebodys home. The three were killed instantly.
            The crash was caused by Reid’s decision to take off in poor weather conditions, overloaded aircraft and it wasn’t able to maintain airspeed. Reid was sitting on the right, however, the main control instruments were on the left in front of Jessica. Investigators believe they went through with the flight due to ambition and media commitments.
            The incident featured on TV series Why Planes Crash.

This started off as a father-daughter adventure, and it's gotten wonderfully out of hand...I'm going to fly till I die.

The Mommy Myth: Threats from Within (Part Three)
Tumblr media
Just some Didi Pickles anxiety for you before we start ahead, I think we’d all feel this way.
We start with the Lisa Steinberg (buried as Elizabeth “Lisa” Launders) case where a six year old was abused to death by her adoptive father Joel Steinberg while her mother Hedda Nussbaum looked on (and was abused herself), there is still some controversy as to whether Hedda was an accomplice to her daughter’s abuse and death, or if she’s merely a victim in her own right (also Joel is walking around free after parole). Media coverage of child abuse have improved, being kicked off by the publication of Mommie Dearest by Christina Crawford and Oprah even covering it in her show “Scared Silent”, interview with Michael Jackson, her disclosure of childhood trauma, and her coverage of child abuse in a Montana town. The darker side is that the coverage overtly covered Black or Latina mothers and were aimed at underfunded and understaffed child welfare services (without assigning culpability to the government and agency support or lack of it) and these stories didn’t address structural problems like unemployment, poverty, generational trauma, racism, etc. Instead they came up with “the Maternal Delinquent”, who was more shocking and newsworthy than fathers who murdered and abused their children. 
youtube
We talk about Susan Smith, where the story starts off with a 23 year old woman’s Mazda being carjacked by a “black man in a ski mask”, taking her car and her two young children (age 3 and 14 months, respectively). An alert was put on for the suspect and the whole community (the small South Carolina town of Union) went on a search for the boys while their separated parents went on national television to beg for the safe return of the boys, while David Smith could barely keep himself together, Susan was very composed (they had filed for divorce) causing many viewers to speculate if the two of them or one of them were involved in the kidnapping. This led to Susan saying that it’s so hurtful someone would think that of them and then hours later, Susan Smith confessed to the FBI that she had driven her car into the lake John D. Long with the kids in the backseat and let the car roll off the boat ramp into the deep murky waters of the lake. This also occurred around the same time as the O.J. Simpson trial so it was a time where people were really tuning into their screens where there was coverage up until Smith was sentenced in late July 1995. The community (that supported her and her family) were chanting “baby killer” at her on her way to the courthouse and it turned out that she had been dating the most eligible (and wealthy) man in town, Tom Findlay, who didn’t want to get involved with a woman with children, so she went La Llorona on them. Here’s a break from Coco:
youtube
I don’t have to tell you that when reading these stories that you can feel free to take time to go outside, smell fresh air, cuddle puppies or look at pictures of puppies. But I will continue: 
Tumblr media
She became Time magazine’s cover girl, people built a shrine to the boys on the lake’s bank, including mothers with their children while they asked “How could a Mother do that to her children?” with one African American mom (one of the skimpy times where moms of color were shown in a more positive life than white mothers) snarking: “She couldn’t eat ‘cause they were hungry, she couldn’t sleep ‘cause they were cold. I guess she couldn’t take a bath ‘cause she thought they was drowning.” The news was a shock to a lot of people, even her ex husband insisted she was a dedicated mother in interviews, but she bamboozled law enforcement, viewers, a whole town, the media, and set the southern African-American community on high alert (look up pogroms and look up the Springfield race riot) and she reminded people that motherhood may be an act. It also made people wonder: are kids just commodities to their parents? The further coverage was worse: they figured the kids were aware when they went in the water (there goes my hopes that they were asleep then). The Union County Sheriff’s office re-created the crime with cameras in a car so people and see and feel what it was like for the boys to go under, then was aired by the networks; at a time when mothers were told to put themselves in their childrens’ shoes and see the world through their eyes, it was jarring. There were two women from the community who cried over the idea of these two little boys and their last moments.
Speaking of horror and children, it turned out that Susan Smith’s stepfather, a member of the conservative Christian Coalition, had been sexually molesting her since she was sixteen and (according to his testimony) was still having sex with her and her own father committed suicide when she was six (a social worker said she tried to press charges but the sheriff said the case was closed and “it’s file disappeared”); Susan even attempted suicide as a teenager. David Smith testified he doesn’t know what to do now his kids were gone and he had plans to see them grow up and teach them how to ride a bike and go fishing. A Newsweek poll revealed that 63% respondents said she should receive the death penalty. The trial even revealed that white picket fence small towns like Union, with it’s churches numbering over 100, would have it’s dark secrets and Tom Brokaw said, “And in every small town in America tonight residents comfortable in the sanctuary of their familiar surroundings are wondering, ‘What’s going on here that we don’t know about?’”
Tumblr media
Instead of probing “how could she?”, the media focused on sentimentalization with Medea Syndrome with even Cosmopolitan magazine taking time away from blow jobs and the thing that Sir Mix A Lot ain’t down with, saying there were a lot of mothers killing their children. And then we met the moms who made mistakes that are so fatal: Lisa Beth Hathaway, mother of Jessica Dubroff. The “miniature Sally Ride” who wanted to be a pilot and was already training to be a pilot and was flying with her instructor and father from Half Moon Bay to go across the country, the weather wasn’t that great and the plane crashed and killed all the passengers. Her father, Lloyd Dubroff was blamed for pushing her to be the next Amelia Earhart, but mom Lisa was portrayed as a monster...although if everything went right she would have been held as an example of exemplary mothers raising exceptional kids (just sayin’). The moms interviewed were outraged at Lisa’s permissiveness and at the fact that she said she wouldn’t have kept Lisa from doing it because it’s her dream (if she did keep her, we’d say she was toxic). Then she was grouped with Wanda Holloway, Brooke Sheilds’s mom, Macaulay Culkin’s dad, and Steffi Graf’s dad as a “pushy parent”. She just wanted her daughter to be happy is all that is, but the media went on to drag her through the mud when they saw she was a hippie feminist who didn’t play a TV  and gave her musical instruments for her daughter, now mothers were policed in private even if their husbands did the fucking up. If things had gone right, Lisa would have been congratulated for raising an exceptional daughter with a variety of talents. She has written a book about her daughter.
The hand wringing went on with their coverage of teen moms like Melissa Drexler and Amy Grossberg, who gave birth and abandoned their babies in the trash outside. Newsweek covered the stories and similar ones, suggesting an epidemic. There was no exploration of how US culture uses sex to sell everything and turns around tells kids to “just say no”, the poor state of sex ed in a country where people are too squeamish to discuss sex in a clear and mature manner, or why was dumping a baby in a dumpster the only viable option? 
These stories affected how moms were looked and judged and the public vilification covered was designed to keep moms on their toes and never let your guard down, or you will be condemned. Also do it all yourself Mom.

Asa Gadis 7 Tahun Jadi Pilot Termuda Pupus dalam Kecelakaan Pesawat
Inanews - Meski masih terbilang sangat belia, asa bocah usia 7 tahun tidak patah untuk menjadi pilot termuda di dunia. Gadis cilik itu bernama Jessica Dubroff. Dia dikuburkan bersama impiannya setelah tewas dalam kecelakaan pesawat yang diterbangkannya pada 11 April 1996. New York Times kala itu mewartakan, gadis asal California, AS, tersebut berupaya memecahkan rekor sebagai pilot termuda yang menerbangkan pesawat melintasi negara bagian. Jessica menerbangkan pesawat mesin tunggal berkursi empat Cessna 177B, bersama dengan ayahnya, Llyod Dubroff, dan instrukturnya, Joe Reid. Namun, penerbangan tersebut berakhir dengan kecelakaan di Cheyenne, Wyoming. Chicago Tribune pada 5 Maret 1997 mewartakan laporan Badan Keselamatan Transportasi AS (NTSB) tentang kecelakaan itu. Pilot instrukturnya, Reid, dinilai membiarkannya lepas landas dalam cuaca badai salju. Sang pelatih berupaya untuk tidak membatalkan wawancara media di setiap pemberhentian penerbangan itu. Namun, ketiganya justru tewas dalam leg kedua perjalanan yang mereka rencanakan. Badan pesawat menunjukkan, Reid telah membantu Jessica selama lepas landas dan mengambil kendali pesawat ketika melewati angin dan salju, tak lama sebelum akhirnya jatuh ke tanah. Setelah kecelakaan tersebut, muncul kritik atas upaya penerbangan yang melibatkan anak-anak. Lembaga regulator penerbangan sipil AS (FAA) segera menyurati semua instruktur penerbangan untuk memperingatkan mereka agar menggunakan akal sehat ketika melibatkan anak-anak dalam menerbangkan pesawat. #OTD in 1996, Seven year old trainee pilot Jessica Dubroff was killed in a Cessna 177 Cardinal plane crash while attempting to become the youngest person to fly across the United States. Her flight instructor & father were also killed. pic.twitter.com/G1N4xOBXzm — Air Disasters (@AirCrashMayday) 11 April 2018 Secara teknis, Reid memang pilot pesawat dalam kecelakaan itu. Namun, dia mengizinkan Jessica untuk mengendalikan si burung besi. Jessica tidak melanggar aturan penerbangan apa pun dalam misi tersebut. Pesawat memiliki dua kendali, yang berarti instruktur juga berada dalam kemudi dan mampu mengambil alih kontrol secara instan. Badan pesawat menunjukkan, Reid telah membantu Jessica selama lepas landas dan mengambil kendali pesawat ketika melewati angin dan salju, tak lama sebelum akhirnya jatuh ke tanah. Setelah kecelakaan tersebut, muncul kritik atas upaya penerbangan yang melibatkan anak-anak. Usia minimum untuk lisensi pilot adalah 17 tahun. Meski demikian, orang yang lebih muda dari usia tersebut dapat menerbangkan pesawat melalui perusahaan pilot berlisensi. Kongres pada akhirnya pun meloloskan aturan yang melarang upaya pemecahan rekor bagi pilot yang tidak berlisensi. Menanti hari esok Sebelum tewas, Jessica menggelar jumpa pers di bandara di Cheyenne. Dia menumpahkan perasaannya jelang hari yang bakal tercatat dalam sejarah penerbangan. "Saya tak sabar menanti hari esok. Saya tak bisa tidur. Saya hanya tidur dua jam semalam," ujarnya. "Dia sangat menyukai penerbangan. Ini dimulai sebagai pengalaman antara ayah dan anak, dan kemudian menjadi sangat luar biasa," kata sang ayah, Llyod. 12 jam kemudian, Jessica, Llyod, dan Reid tewas dalam kecelakaan pesawat. Ibu Jessica, Lisa Blair Hathaway mengaku tak mendengar masalah apa pun ketika ketiganya mulai lepas landas. "Saya mohon agar anak-anak dibiarkan terbang jika mereka inginkan hal itu," tuturnya sebelum anak dan mantan suaminya itu tewas. Jessica merupakan penggemar berat Amelia Earhart. Dia tinggal bersama ibunya dan dua saudara kandungnya di Pescadero. Sementara ayahnya, tinggal bersama istri keduanya di San Mateo. Dia dan saudaranya menerima pendidikan melalui home schooling. Terlintas dalam benak Llyod agar putrinya melakukan penerbangan lintas negara bagian seperti yang pernah tercatat beberapa tahun sebelumnya oleh seorang anak. Dia meminta Jessica untuk memecahkan rekor, dan segera disambut dengan senang hati. Guiness Books of Records pernah mencatat rekor kategori pilot termuda, namun telah menghentikannya untuk alasan keamanan. Rekor tidak resmi tersebut tertulis dilakukan oleh Daniel Shanklin pada 1991, yang kala itu berusia 7 tahun, menerbangkan pesawat dari San Diego ke Kill Devil Hills. Meski sama-sama berusia 7 tahun, namun Jessica satu bulan lebih muda ketika mencoba memecahkan rekor. Read the full article
