Undertoad Wednesday Jul 19 12:57 PM7/19/2006: Women F-15 pilots
xoxoxoBruce sends this along possibly not as an IotD, but I'm gonna go ahead and use it anyway. Caption: Four F-15 Eagle pilots from the 3rd Wing walk to their respective jets at Elmendorf Air Force Base, Alaska, on Wednesday, July 5, for the fini flight of Maj. Andrea Misener (far left). To her right are Capt. Jammie Jamieson, Maj. Carey Jones and Capt. Samantha Weeks. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. Keith Brown)
We've previously had an all-women C-130 crew, and I *swear* we had another all woman crew pic that I just can't find anywhere. So perhaps xoB knew I would take this bait. Smart guy. Anyway, it's worth noting that these liberated broads are flying some serious hardware, and that the military may not always look like it does in the picture in your mind.
Spexxvet Wednesday Jul 19 01:12 PMI wonder if they put lipstick on while they look in their rearview mirror doing mach 2.
And who would name their kid Jammie Jamieson? The same people that would name their kid Robert Robertson, Hugh Hughes, Ben Dover, Heywood Jablowme, or Shanda Leer?
mlandman Wednesday Jul 19 01:18 PMI wonder if

The islamic terrorists feel better or worse about this when the bombs land? I bet I know the answer.
Dypok Wednesday Jul 19 02:40 PMSomething tells me the "islamic terrorists" don't have any problems with bombs no matter what the form of delivery.

Undertoad Wednesday Jul 19 04:18 PMThat's the one, thanks!
Trilby Wednesday Jul 19 04:20 PMHey! three out of four female F-15 pilots are blonde!
Elspode Wednesday Jul 19 04:29 PMWell, its only a matter of time before Playboy does a "hot babe fighter pilots" issue.

There was an article in the onion a while back citing recent advances made in the workplace by broads, namely how htey are taken more seriously and get more respect than they used to.
And after looking at the last image of those four pilots, I can assure you the picture in my mind would end up on another thread...
capnhowdy Wednesday Jul 19 04:41 PMI wonder if they ground them during 'that time'...

Nah, the two on the right look like dye jobs, see the roots? 2 out of 3 brunette female F-15 pilots wish they were blonde...
On the other hand, 4 out of 4 KC-135 pilots appear to be naturally blonde.
capnhowdy Wednesday Jul 19 05:21 PMsomeone 'shop the uniforms to insert some cameltoe.
BigV Wednesday Jul 19 05:52 PMNames...
Perhaps she married into the name. A good friend of ours married into a surname that matched her first name. Who would name their child "Leslie Leslie"? *
* not her real name, but the illustration is intact.
barefoot serpent Wednesday Jul 19 06:10 PMso, do they still say: Tally ho?

If a male pilot wouldn't tolerate a flight suit that tight in the crotch (they wouldn't) why should a woman?
You'll have to settle for this:
Happy Monkey Wednesday Jul 19 07:24 PMMaybe not camel-toe-tight....
footfootfoot Wednesday Jul 19 08:40 PMYou'd think the taters he stuffed down there would be uncomfortable...
MaggieL Wednesday Jul 19 09:34 PMHe's dressed for an S-2 flight; needs the parachute harness. F-15 chute is built into the seat, as I recall; all the girls need is a helmet bag.
Elspode Wednesday Jul 19 11:26 PMAnybody want to take a shot at what their Fighter Pilot Nicknames are?

Don't make her pop a daisy cutter in yo' ass.
MurMetz Thursday Jul 20 09:45 AMI wonder if "Jammie" is a nick-name -- Pajama Jamieson?!?!?!
What the heck were those parents thinking!!!
findpolitics Thursday Jul 20 10:04 AMBeautiful. (both from a proud pro-equality standpoint, and ... well ... as a guy)

Where "a while back" is like ten years now! But, as usual, even though it was only one word, you have somehow channelled the exact thing I had in mind when I wrote that.
Promenea Thursday Jul 20 10:38 AMI'm betting Jammie is a nick based on her last name (Hey Jameison quickly gets shortened to Jammie) rather than her real first name. Maybe she inherited one of those awful first names which she refuses to use.

Ten years? Time flies, and look how far they've come.
As long as we don't start wearing the same outfits I think it is ok.

It took me a while to get used to "Sally Ride". Every time I heard her name I would start mentally singing Mustang Sally.
