High heels

A twin Eng Jet crashed back in the late seventies due to a co-pilot wearing high heels , the investigation findings showed that the high heel prevented free movement of the rudder on T/O as it stucked between the floor and the rudder , the Co-pilot was a male but it was a fashion those days,after that accident high heels were not accepted on any cockpit.
