The preponderance of girl babies was noted when I was at Geilenkirchen in 1962 (Javelins and Canberras). One conjecture was that the high pitched howl of jet engines somehow affected the sperm of jet jockeys, by inhibiting production of the y-chromosome.

...Stn Cdr asked me what my career aspirations were a while back, told him to draw more in pension than I did in salary...
I've achieved that, by a handsome margin - 23 years postwar service followed by 44 years of a pension of 42% of my
last pay (inc Marriage Allowance). That was followed by 13½ years Civil Service and 30 years of their pension of 16% of final salary.
The country can't afford it - pensions will have to be cut, soon - but wait till I'm gone, please !
