The Glamour of Flight: Sexy Stewardesses, Part 4

"QUANTUM SHOT" #577
Link - by A. Abrams

Another helping of good old times to brighten up your weekend

"There was something in the air in the early years of commercial aviation. Perhaps more excitement, perhaps more glamorous stewardesses... in any case, it's worth savoring once again."...

And once again! This is Part 4 of our extremely popular collection (start with Part 1 here); send us more stories and photos of the wonderful flight experiences you had - this time around we also feature a few modern examples of attractive flight attendants. Let's keep the skies full of smiles and beauty!

Somewhat creepy, no? -

Not really stewardesses, but a good show, nonetheless

The following images are taken either from the advertisements, promotions, films, or exhibition events. The girls shown here are not stewardesses in real life... but the image they convey is worth experiencing:

Certificate of a great experience!

Sometimes a stewardess' pretty face was hidden... like in this "survival bag" demonstration:

Finally, the image that's going to stay with you - remember it every time you fly... Who's going to tuck you in at night? Why, a pilot, of course! -
