Females have been flying fast jets for longer than many people know.

Early sixties...….

Lucky they put the pretty (?) ones at the front. The gals in the back row are rough!!

Actually I am more fascinated by fast female jet pilots than female fast jet pilots.

SAS, don't kid yourself - you know you couldn't catch a fast one and neither could I. :p

SAS, you know you're old when you like looking at the fillies but can't remember why. I'd say you've got plenty of mileage left. :ok:

Is that Doddy on the extreme left of the rear row?

Is it a blemish on the photo, or is one of those ladies really sporting a Hitler moustache? Hopefully the former!

Pilots have to stop kerbing their rims when they park.

When I leer at the Fillies....I know why!

Sadly I am limited to humming that old Southern Baptist Hymn "Precious Memories"!

Tell us about the one you won without knowing it was taking place?

and the winner was . . . . . a one eyed fish gutter from Grimsby, the source of many a winner :eek:

Its a sad state of affairs when you look at a photo like that and the first thing you think is. I hope they took their shoes off before walking on the wing. Look at the size of those heels :eek:

(plus a few more unkind posts of the same type)

Considering none of the chaps would make the first cut if auditioning for a recruiting poster depicting a "steely-eyed young fighter pilot" I dont know why you feel you can make personal remarks like that about these nice ladies !
