Re: Air Hostesses

Philippine Airlines, July 2010

Thanks to our cabin crew for an excellent service. I hope to fly with them in the future.

I had my seat-mate take this photo after we touched down at HKG.

Re: Air Hostesses

WRT to the 'Aeroflot' pics... I've stood for a photo in the engine like that* and no cardboard was required... merely an instruction from the captain to stand slightly on my toes so as to keep the weight off my heels.

More than likely the model was a bit finicky about slipping and falling out of the engine (girl doesn't know how to sit/stand in an engine, tsk tsk she's not a REAL hostie!!!) :p

*Would like to clarify I mean in that pose, not the without-clothes part, I'm a classy hostie not some trolley trash

The Flight Attendant - Jet Engine Love Affair

For everyone's viewing pleasure, I figured I would pass along tihs brief compilation of photographs of various hosties from various airlines in various states of dress (or undress, as the case may be) positioned alongside various jet engines. I hope these photographs can be enjoyed for their artistic contributions as opposed to immediately being dismissed as exploitative.

Remember, all of these women posed on their own free will. God love 'em!

"There are no victims. Only volunteers."



Apparently this is what started it all



This pretty lass worked for PSA -- in reference to their stews, that was known to stand for Pure, Sober & Available!



A Braniff Hostie. They used to have a slogan, "If you've got it, flaunt it!" Way to go, Braniff! Too bad you're still not around . . .



Look! It's the Double-Mint Twins! Double your pleasure, double your fun!



Ah yes. There are certain advantages to flying smaller, private jets as opposed to the big commercial airlines. Namely, the flight attendant-to-passenger ratio is better!



What can we say about Ryanair that hasn't been said already? I mean besides the expletives! BTW, that's Edita Schindlerova in the purple bikini sitting on top of the jet engine. I think she's their most famous flight attendant.



These jet engines seem to be a favorite resting place for Ryanair flight attendants. The turbine blades must keep them cool on hot days while they're working on their tans.





Aye Carumba! Even the Mexican airline Viva Aerobus is getting in on the action! Muy bien!




Pity the poor flight attendants of the defunct Spanish airline Air Comet. They had to pose for a calendar to generate some income because their bankrupt employer stiffed them on their paychecks! Talk about REAL exploitation!




Not to be outdone by Aeroflot, the Ukranian airline Windrose also jumped on the hottie-flight-attendant-calendar bandwagon. It's so nice to see that the former USSR is embracing all the decadent things the West has been familiar with for decades!

Re: Air Hostesses

I'm not sure tanning yourself on a jet engine 30,000+ ft high is a good idea... i'm sure her looks will bypass that

I am sorry I didn't get my reply off last night as intended - many new posts to reply to since so I will modify and summarise...

I have really enjoyed the pics you've posted before and would love to see more. I have a huge collection of pics of hosties posing in engine nacelles. Not many Aussies though. I am sure you are right - she is not a real hostie. I was going to post a couple of pics last night but have been pipped at the post! If you can find some that you don't mind posting - bring them on!

Good compilation! Not the pics that I would personally have chosen - most have been shown before. I have been considering starting an "alternative hosties thread" within Vintage Wings to showcase the pics that really don't belong here. The Air Comet calendar has made me think about doing this again. I have a lot of other pics that can never be shown here or could be but would detract. Perhaps I might still run a mini-thread dedicated to engine photos - it's been on my to-do list for a while. A twins min-thread is also in the mix!

Yes, and no!

The earliest shots I have of air hostesses posing in engine nacelles hail from the 1960's. Pure jets were introduced into service in the late 1950's. Some - such as the Comet and Caravelle - did not have underwing nacelles that lent themselves to these sort of photos. The B707's and DC-8's were the first to feature. I guess that in those days, most of those elegant ladies of the skies would have considered that sort of thing inappropriate. By the late 60's, attitudes were becoming more relaxed and by the 70's these photos were very commonplace.

Although the Pan Am stew featured above was one of the earliest shots, by my reckoning it was not the photo that started the trend. Here is an earlier shot, again in a DC-8 and again a Pan American Airways hostess though. If anyone has an earlier photo - please post it!

Forgive me - I'm old. I think the uniform dates from the mid 90's.
