Your pilot, the petulant teenager

  1. I was at the Pima Air & Space Museum in Tucson Arizona once and at the B-17 exhibit they had an older gentleman showing people around it, he said that when he was 19 years old he was a co-pilot on a B-17 during the first daylight bombing run on Berlin.
    That was an American teenager in the early 1940s.

    1. 20 year old B17 navigator led the inaugural flight of B17s from Hawaii to Australia. Took precision to hit those refueling atolls.

  2. Obviously its sci-fi art and the artist services a certain demographic who expects stronk!! independent girl/woman characters. I personally gave her two looks: one for the tits, the other for idiotic long hair when you're regularly wearing a helmet.

    And then: for the next minute? I looked at the aircraft in the background, what is it? Air-breather? Ground-Attack? Transporter? VTOL? Where are the weapons?
    And so on....

    2. This! Tits and looks will warrant a look, but war aircraft and mecha of any type will have me studying it for hours.
