Jessi Combs was awesome. She was my dream girl. Rest in Peace. She died doing what she loved.

I watched an episode on some Canadian show that featured the building and testing of that very converted F-104 Starfighter some 10 years ago. I remember thinking at the time that it was going to kill someone.

Can't say I knew anything about her, but that is a hell of a way to go out.  Brief reading up and she def sounds like a badass.

I think I first saw her on some "Spike TV" show doing fab work on ridiculous offroaders like 15+ years ago.  Then overhauling and Mythbusters.  She always seemed to have an awesome personality.
