"too bad the one third from the right couldn't smile for the camera - she looks like a hottie."

It's the stance, not her hot factor. She's standing more like a girl than the other ones. You think she's hot because her body language says she's more likely to be nice to you.

The one on the left would probably look great in a bikini but she's standing in a very masculine pose so she's less appealing.

Don't know if it's a sidewinder; however, yep!

The cargo bay is about 10' 3" wide, at the bottom. :)

I disagree but welcome to the Cellar. :) Stick around and maybe we can find something to agree on.

The second from the left is a dead ringer for the X-Files Agent Scully, Gillian Anderson. Amazing resemblence.

I lurve strong women.

I appreciate anyone who is willing to serve. I'm sure they are qualified for their jobs or they wouldn't have them. These women are soldiers, not sissies. The sissies are back home searching for reasons why women shouldn't serve.
Even if they aren't the greatest in a combat situation (I'm just saying IF), They can perform duties that may free up soldiers who ARE to face the enemy head on. Thats what a military machine is all about. I love it.
And they look sexy as hell, too.......... This may be one C130 I may ENJOY a ride on.

There are planes.

And then there are fields.

I would think not understanding the finer points that distinguish them would also be somewhat of a liability.

That's a lot of stewardesses for such a small crew. Where's the driver?

:bolt:

Somewhere over Colorado looking for her target. ;)

How can you tell that from the picture? Is there something about the way a pilot stands that indicates their skill level, or is that just PC wishful thinking? BTW, which one's the pilot?

wolf 10-29-2005 01:47 PM

The notion being that women in the services, particularly in something like piloting, are under pressure to be better than the best guy.

I got a kick out of this photo someone here posted before of a female B-1 pilot. I re-posted it on another forum and one funny reply was "Another empty kitchen."
