This sux. Since when do flight attendants get to say how an airline is run or what promotions get put on the airplane. One of the best days I've had flying at SWA is when I flew "Swimsuit One" all day. Everyone loved it, except for a few goody-two-shoes pilots and some flight attendants.

Let the FA's start an airlines, and they can put what ever they want on the side.

I agree! They need to keep their mouth shut and stick to serving the passengers! Oh wait, they don't even do that anymore!

Pull their trips with no pay and send them home. "Sorry this beautiful picture offends you, have a nice week off." Family values my butt, do they not go to the beach then? If this would have been SWA 20 years ago Herb would have said see ya in court you fricken whiners. I bet VA will get the SI swimsuit gal next year and Branson's hotties will love it. Why? Cause they are young and hot unlike the rest of the industries medicare "i want another career crowd."

Our United flight attendants would be very upset. Mostly because none of them come within 100 pounds or 30 years of the woman on the side of the airplane. Bunch of prudes. I sure miss the old days at EAL.

Blame it on lawyers.

I think they need to point out some history.......As in world war 2.....specifically the nose art and what it stood for and perhaps why pilots of that era did it. Maybe then people would be more understanding?

I can see the other side too. I mean those high heels, a swimsuit that looks painted on and lest I forget those nice perky nipples. Perhaps they could have toned it down a bit.

Gee, I wonder why they didn't protest the Elton John airplane?? uke:

 

[IslandDriver]

They should protest all the Cosmo's and Elle's in the seatback pockets...they have less clothes on in there.

STFU and waddle back and fetch me a Coke trolley donkey!:nuts:

I guess they could even things out and "offend" the pilots by putting a picture of Ned Beatty, circa 1972, on the side.

Interesting point. I remember a B-24 in Texas called the Yellow Rose which had a topless woman as nose art. That was around 1999. When I saw it a few years later, she wore a top.

There was a Virgin Atlantic advertisement outside LHR a few years ago. It said: Fly Virgin Atlantic to America to see your grandmother! Or fly AA to see your grandmother work. (I was told the senior f/a's didn't appreciate the ad!)

I don't want to think of this country 20 years down the road the way PC is enforced ...

You know what you Tranny mgmt fellas should do....fvck'n paint TEN more birds like that. More complaints???....surrre...how'bout another ten.

MGMT talking ---> Then...here's the deal....YOU (the overweight, outta shape FAs) start looking like the ladies on the planes, we'll take them off.

 

[Headfake14]

We should apply this strategy to our JB gals too....HELL...everyone.


miss the old days...and I was barely a kid then.

 

[Poahi]

An image like that creates some expectations..... I think that's what they object to.

 

[waveflyer]

Seriously?
We're jokes of the world how we get bent out of shape over sex and our bodies- I don't care if you're a spike haired femi-nazi or some neo-con on a Jesus trip- if you can't appreciate how beautiful the human body can be, you're probably not living well enough. Get a life.
