    With shorts and no shirts, who'd never pick these Gunnies as some of the most professional ground crew in the world.

      Obviously you’re not Australian, it’s functional. Gets the job done in the heat and humidity. We have never worried about unnecessary formality.

      Craig Beatty ah yes I am, if you’re not a butt hurt young person you would appreciate I was laughing at ourselves. Something we used to be able to do. FYI child of the 60’s and been serving in uniform one way or another since 83. 🖕

      Actually the knotted hanky wasn't allowed to be worn by all and sundry - it was a right of passage. Bung made me my first knotted hanky... I wore it with pride

    Fighter pilots like Chuck Yeager have often described the characteristics of the planes they've flown as feminine. But just as a picture's worth a thousand words, some fighters are just high maintenance. Salute to the ground crews that had to put up with them !

      I still have scars - it might have been female but it was a true bitch.

    The Mirage was a lady with attitude and of course always wanted attention. ...lol.
