Having only really flown in mid/late nineties onwards my historical flying experience is limited but I stumbled on this...

Was it really like this?

Sorry Simon I'm too young to know but I do love those hotpants

I think I'd remember if any TAA or ANA (Australian National Airlines) hostie looked like that!

I have seen that image linked to in the BA FT forum.

... must see if I can dig it up as there's some other rather interesting images IIRC.

"No thanks, I'd rather have some TWA tea"

simongr, you should have seen what the FAs wore in First Class!! :shock:

Seriously, I think I would have recalled FA attire like that pictured...sadly, I can't!
- must have flown the wrong airlines.

I wasn't flying much in the late 60's early 70's but bus conductress' (remember them?) skirts were about as short as those hotpants.

In those days I used to drink in the Racecourse Hotel in Alison Road Randwick where many of the girls from the nearby bus depot used to go after their shift.

Southwest airlines I believe.

There's a gruen transfer episode on airline marketing that discusses this. Has been screening on qf domestic flights a lot recently butbim sure it's available on DVD/legal or illegal download.
