Has this particular fighter pilot got a thing going for 1960 Air Hostesses of Pacific Southwest Airlines? That looks like a Lockheed L-1011-1 TriStar of PSA.

I sure DID!

It does not pay to be too selective Mel.

If you are out of fuel and weapons, any port in a storm will do...........

Lockheed L-1011-1 TriStar? What Lockheed? I don't see an aeroplane....

Mel, yes I think you're right, despite the "distractions" I'm pretty sure it is a L1011...and could well be PSA.

Now how about a more recent (but sadly demised) airline:



Meet the Hooters Air cabin crew....now, I know which crew I prefer!
