Actually I wasn't commenting on females pissing at all or Japs flying out of Rabaul.

how do you guys wash your hands after you pee in a clownjet!?!
I think gender/ethnicity/whatever is notable when something is more difficult to accomplish because of it, eg if a woman breaks the men's world record for 1-mile run.Focusing attention on the "first female ___" is a disservice to the individual in question and to the others who did the exact same training.
I've seen the excess attention drive the actions of head sheds as well as producing friction amongst the other pilots.
Do you think the medical corps puts out press releases saying "LT Gaylord Focker, first male nurse in OBGYN?"

...how did Saburo Sakai do it? 10-plus hours or something round trip from Rabaul to Guadalcanal and back...in an A6M2? With a bleeding head wound?
Did you get in your Power Aid bottle target practice?Being as frugal as I am, I recently took a piss in a rental Cessna as to not waste fuel landing. I trimmed her up ok and rolled it out. Hard as hell to stop midstream and correct attitude. Thank God for Power Aid bottle.
Did you get in your Power Aid bottle target practice?....there is a reason Cessnas have windows that open.
I don't think this was any kind of press release.
I think this was just thought of as newsworthy by the dude who posted it at WIX. Notice there's no link to any kind of news source or anything. Just this dude posting his photos and "announcing" it himself.
There is nothing like trying to pour a dead man's ashes out of a C-152 and having the wind blow it back in.![]()
