High flying females wanted as women's wingwalker team recruits

The world’s only acrobatic wing walkers are currently recruiting a new addition to their death defying stunt team.

The Breitling Wingwalkers are a four women team, who perform gymnastic dances whilst strapped to the wing of an aeroplane flying at some 7,000 feet above ground. With the company currently planning to build a fifth Boeing Stearman biplane, the crew are in a need of a new recruit.

The chief wing walker Sarah Tanner, 33, explained the role, saying: “We're a very busy display team flying at events throughout the world. We've got a vacancy on the team for a new wing-walker, to display 'on the wing'. A new employee for a very unusual role.”
