As a UH-60A pilot I will tell you that when you are coming back from a long flight and in the shit, nothing is more of a turn on than having a female voice on that PAR.
I used to maintain GCA back in the day--ETR at Miramar, 70-74, had FPN-52 and 2 FPN-36's, TACAN. Nearly wiped off TACAN tower once by stupid Sandcrab on crane truck.
You guys do a good job. It is good to see it from the pilots seat. Lost my gyro's once. Was given a no compass / no gyro approach using standby instruments. Fantastic - and my arse was saved that day.
