BBC NEWS | UK | Red Arrows get female pilot The Red Arrows, the Royal Air Force Aerobatic Team, unveils its 2010 line-up - and for the first time, it includes a female pilot. Flight Lieutenant Kirsty Moore from Lincolnshire previously served as a Flying Instructor, teaching students to fly the advanced fast jet trainer at RAF Valley, before flying the Tornado GR4 on operations in Iraq. Here she shows us round her new plane and explains what she thinks about her new job.
I believe she has signed for the aircraft in a prang recently? First job..change the wheel..second job check undercarriage switch electrics..thid job remove rayburns if unable to see switch..kidding of course...good luck to the lady .obviously deserved and earned.
funny living here in Beverley - with RAF Scampton just over the bridge really. When the Reds are on training / practice flights locally - people usually mutted 'noisey bleeders' as the fly locally, heard one old bloke today as he looked skywards at the unseen noise and mutered 'bloomin' women drivers' yorkshire humour at its best
