Red Arrows appoint first female pilot

Flight Lieutenant Kristy Moore has become the first woman pilot in the 46 year history of the Red Arrows display team. Kirsty currently flies Tornado jets and is based in Qatar. She is one of only ten women jet pilots in the RAF. This is a magnificent acheivement as competition for a place is fierce and only 60 out of 2040 trained pilots are women. Well done Kirsty.
