It’s a tradition even your dad went through, girl. Get ready for it.
Well, I better get those implants installed I don't want anyone disappointed!

Whatever -
Just don’t get anything that might interfere with the travel limits of the control yoke.

I took a gal up in the Aerobat one time who was so “endowed” that she could only work the elevator and ailerons. If we moved the seat up to where she could reach the rudder pedals, the yoke only gave us about 25% up elevator. (And it wasnt because she was short.)
Not a good thing.

She had a good sense of humor. And we do have some pictures around here somewhere. I’ll try to dig them out. Pretty funny, really. But she’d have to fly a stick if she wanted to become a pilot.
Even then......

Oh. I see.

Actually - If we had the seat set to where she could go full deflect on the rudder (or apply the brakes). We would not have been able to get off the ground. I, for one, am not a big fan of wind powered go-carts on short tracks.

Don’t think “Big” boobs here. Think “HUGE”. “SCARY HUGE!!”
