Uh, she's not a guy. She is a very bright young woman - I had the opportunity to meet her last week when I was in the DRC.

Look for her soon in the flight compartment of an Airbus you are riding in...

Dating/marrying potential for male PPRuNers - A+

She's got a b/f who is a darn good guy who works for MSFB as the flight coordinator.

Sorry guys, think she's off the market!

Im living right now in Kinshasa and flying all around the DRC (RDC). Hahaha sometimes I even forget what this is all about! The lady potental here is great....the UN has some 3000 (office and support staff in Kinshasa). About half that is female! And yes a few are even really good looking. Even some female pilots. There is a drop dead blond flying a 1900 out of Bukavu for the Red Cross. There is potential here boys! Love the Congo!
