Default Re: Aircraft pics

I was in the Air Force for nine and a half years, flew the '135 for five of those years, and one good-looking female was a rarity, let alone four. Photo is just another PR move by some craven PR officer. Not that women can't do the job, just that that photo is total PR fluff.

On a related note, when I upgraded to the left seat of the '135 the schedulers thought it would be funny to assign me a copilot named Tim Bush and a navigator named Pat Poon. It was Eaton/Bush/Poon on all of our paperwork as well as on the scheduling board. We were famous base-wide and even the female squadron personnel thought it was funny.
