I say revive this lol

Hello every1 I am back!

lol the way I see it theres got 2 be another 15/16 year old female pilot at some flying school somewhere in this country?
The odds...come on theres just got to be!!?

I have girls, but not aviators! I want to meet a girl already into flying! Most "grounded" girls just dont know why I like/love flying so much, so it would be very nice to share it with a girl that already knows!

Well time to eat dinner!

Capn Karl

All rather silent

Karl,

The ladies go mad for a set of wings (the badge, not the real things which they on average think are boring). Buy a set of PPRuNe wings, walk up to a reasonable female (on the airfield) and say:

'Hi, you look 16, wanna fly with me?"

(Now drop into foetal position and defend yourself from the unmerciful beating).

Besides, any females into aviating are bound to be there for the love of flight. Men come second. Literally

Confab (25, male and enjoying it!)

Confabulous, your bound to meet females slightly to young for you, lol drop them my home field (sywell, changing to sibson late april) or maybe my pprune name! So you have a lot of female freinds?

Cool BWPA

Correct me if I am wrong but wouldnt you have to be a female pilot to join in the first place?
I understand that BWPA was set up to promote the interests of women in aviation, and as such the membership is NOT confined to women only. So feel free to join us.

Mine you when another women pilot and I were leaving for a BWPA fly-in last summer, we had all the usual comments from the fellas at the flying club such as:

"Oh good, those two are going to a BWPA meeting to learn how to make a proper cup of tea!"

So girls, if you want to become a pilot, you need a sense of humour and the ability to wind up the fellas

CaptainKarl...
You should speak to TheKentishFledgling... he seems to know all the young ladies. I remember a thread about some Latvian Triplets a few months back!

I do agree though, some more female aviators are always a good thing (says a single and looking guy! )

Me and the bear would love to recruit some more females to the network. Come and ride the PPL rollacoaster and visit far off airfields in the middle of nowhere.

You never stop learing in aviation so come and educate my feminine side!!!

Only just seen this thread and I haven't read it all in detail, but if this is turning into a dating agency for private pilots then count me in!!!!!!

Just in case!!!!! I am a single, attractive male (they all say that don't they!); young 35!!!

You called?

As for the triplets...
Took two of them for some aeros in the Citabria, but the third refused to fly, but she enjoyed being inverted anyway.
