Historic woman pilot for Red Arrows

The Red Arrows have made history by taking on their first ever female pilot, Kirsty Moore  joins the team of pilots for the 2010 season.
 
The RAF said that until now no female fast-jet pilot had advanced far enough in their flying career to join the display team.
 
Flight Lieutenant Moore, who has flown combat missions in Iraq, says it's a great honour to be chosen.

It's a tough challenge to get the job. About 30 fast jet-pilots apply to the Red Arrows every year but only the very best are successful.
