Two men made this flight, not a man and a woman. Women made a lot of incredible contributions, but this wasn't one of them. There are many true stories about amazing women waiting to be told without changing the person's sex. It's like Hollywood doesn't believe there are stories about women worth telling, so they switch msle characters to female. Apple made a series about the space race with women inserted where there were all men.
I suppose this gets kudos in Hollywood, and the independent film circuit, but most viewers of historical movies get excited and take their friends when it's the actual story of what took place.
Filmakers have so much hubris they think their version of history is better than what actually happened.
Filmakers are obviously free to make any story they want, but if you claim to be telling a true story try using a little truth.
