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

Early sixties...….

Nice tash! :)

Five of them were colleagues of mine.

I don't suppose the Lightning had leading edge slats.......

ShyTorque 23rd Dec 2018 20:16

Looks like some had flaps though.

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.

What was the occasion, 'Mother and Sons Annual Reunion'? (Ouch!)

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

I thought the same thing on seeing it!

It was actually a UAS visit to What a Shame.

And if he did catch one would he know what to do with it?

Any more I would have forgotten why I was chasing her!

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.

SASless 25th Dec 2018 12:41

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

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

NutLoose 25th Dec 2018 12:53

That explains the nickname Frightning

brakedwell 25th Dec 2018 17:54

Reminds me of Strubby Grimmy parties

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