GLENDALE, AZ — The Super Bowl flyover team featuring exclusively female pilots has informed NFL officials that they are running a "little behind."
"We'll be right there! Sorry!" radioed pilot Amy Donaldson to an antsy crew at the stadium. "Just make yourselves comfortable!"
While television producers expressed dismay at the delay, the pilots promised they were getting ready as fast as possible. "The line for the bathroom is going as fast as it can," assured lead pilot Emily Rawls. "Believe me, we will step on the gas and show everyone some woman power just as soon as we can! Until then - wait, hold on now - did we all just show up in the same flight outfit??"
At publishing time, the team pushed back their arrival another ten minutes after one of the pilots burned out her landing gear taxiing with the parking brake on.

That there is fun knee.
A “crack” outfit!
Funny, Babylon Bee.
Is it just me or did the flyover seem...lackluster this year?
They flew over an enclosed stadium and there was a camera inside at least one jet but because the pilots were wearing helmets and masks you couldn’t see who or what........after all that hype the whole thing was a freaking bust....... hilarious 🤣
“the team pushed back their arrival another ten minutes after one of the pilots burned out her landing gear taxiing with the parking brake on”
Once again The Bee drifts from satire into reality.
“Does this F/A-18 make me look fat?”
They were flying and putting their makeup on at the same time.
LOL! Good one.
They whole time during pilot training they were thinking: “I hope I’m not expected to fly in reverse.”
It’s hard to find a place to land every 100 miles so you can use the restroom.
Hopefully they don’t parallel park the planes at the air base.
The fuel gauge was replaced with a bladder gauge.
That seems to be the optimum formula.
Do military jets have cupholders now? Just asking for a guy next door.
This is a little unfair. My private flight instructor was a woman and we were flying a new Piper Arrow at night back to an uncontrolled airport. A wire on the alternator came loose, I shut down non-essential instruments, tracked the interstate back to the field, turned on the radio briefly to announce my arrival, and turned on the lights when we were on final.
Bless the BEE!
Pfft. They can fly with me, the way my friends drive with me. That way, when I have to stop every 50 miles, all the torture and ridicule falls on me.
I don't care anymore-as long as I can make it.
Hysterical
(Or is that misogynistic?)
