Why is it that on all the kids' shows ARR likes, Smurfette is always the flyer?
Paw Patrol - Skye is the helicopter pilot.
PJ Masks - Owlette had the glider and one of her superpowers is flight.
RescueBots - I guess technically the bots are genderless, but they use male pronouns. All the bots are male, but they have corresponding human partners. Blades the helicopter's pilot? The only girl of the lot.
I mean, flying is badass. Not gonna complain. But why is it always the girl?

Season 2 does a lot more character stuff and shows everyone hanging out on shore leave all the time, but it's always the men. It's always a group of guys hanging out, usually trying to pick up girls. The two female characters are only ever shown on shore leave if they're on a date.
