The Sharia-Approved Clothing for a Lady Pilot
Kamangir | September 21, 2007 | Category Humour, Iran, Islamic Republic
You have seen enough bizarre things from the Islamic Republic, but this one is unique. This piece has been aired in the national television. Apparently, the lady pilot boards the fighter with her Chador, long toe-to-head cover, on. A user in the Iranian Digg, Balatarin, suggests, “She can use it in emergencies. You know, as a parachute”.

Man, if there’s a flameout she is going to be a flying human torch in that rig.
(I bet she’s got nothing on underneath…woo-hoo. That must be what the Ahmadinejad meant today when he talked about Iranian women being the “free-est in the world.”)
