It's nice to see women, though acheiving a job formerly dominated by men, still getting back to their roots....cleaning. ;)
[airliners36925[/airlinersI do love seeing photos of pilots doing things outside the cockpit...the walkarounds, cleaning windows, etc.
The reason why god gave women small feet was so that she could be closer to the sink
and the laundry etc.... I know this as fact as I do all the dishes and the laundry and can
tell you that it sucx! :lol:
There are so many one liners that can be said about this photo.....
Why isn't she back in the galley, making the co-pilot a sandwich? :)
Judging by the scarf, the co-pilot is a woman, too. They should be in the back making the tug driver a sandwich. :)
I put five stars on this one and the comment I tried to add was "Holding a bottle and cleaning a plane. Tradition. should never die" Needless to say it got rejected.
Well, I don't know about you guys, but before this gets ugly, I would like to say I was just kidding!!! haha
That is sorta hot to see an all female pilot crew woo hoo!
Doing their duties of cleaning as Phil mentioned. (god im going to hell for that)

Anyway, how common is it for two women to be running the show in the cockpit? Obviously it happens, but that has to be uncommon in itself.
Transavia 402 right on Kilo after the 757 and if I can get the eggs over easy and unfertilized that would be great. Cleared to the gate. (Stamped my ticket to hell)
i know more than a few instances where our CHQ flights have been an al-female crew. i don't get to hang out with them anymore, i've been banished to operations and have no interaction with them. i don't have the luxury of leaving my position for hours on end like some i work with... :roll:Quote:

All 3 wing-walkers where female also (common then). Only the mechanic driving the pushback tug and myself closing the cabin door and retracting the jetway where the only males involoved with that departure. It was unforgettable.

All this talk about female pilots reminds me - for over a year, I flew with a female aircraft commander on my KC-135 crew. In fact, she was in the first group of women the Air Force sent through pilot training in 1976. Being an officer and a gentleman, I will refrain from commenting on the experience, both in and out of the aircraft :wink:
Interestingly enough, around that same time, I flew some with another woman from that group, a T-37 instructor pilot. Not only an outstanding pilot, but a great person as well.
...and these women are????? (Obviously pilots, but what do they fly? Are they all Captains? etc...)Quote:
