Carol Vorderman, 58, took to the micro-blogging site where she shared a snap of herself sitting in the cockpit of an aircraft at the Royal International Air Tattoo charity event. The age-defying beauty sported a pair of sunglasses as her blonde tresses hung past her shoulders as she beamed at the camera. In view of her 407,000 followers, the small-screen star penned: “I do love a cockpit #Pilot…sitting in one of the concept #GenerationTempest models at @airtattoo @BAESystemsAir @RollsRoyce @Leonardo_live #TopGun.” Fans quizzed the star on her comment, as one person added a clip of the movie character Austin Powers with the caption: “Oh behave.”
Another person said: “Can I be your wingman,” while another social media user added: “Just choked on my beer @carolvorders.”
It comes after Carol attended the Air Tattoo event by the Royal Air Force which is held over the next three days in order to raise money for charity.
The television presenter is an active supporter of the RAF Association charity and regularly appears at their fundraising events.
Also, the small-screen star obtained a private pilot’s license in 2014 and was appointed an ambassador of the Royal Air Force Air Cadets the same year.
Earlier in the day, Carol shared a solo snap of herself as she showcased her attire at the event.
She showed off her enviable physique in a dark green jumpsuit, which hugged her curves and cinched in at the waist.
The former Countdown mathematician teamed her ensemble with a pair of heels as her blonde tresses blew in the wind.
In view of her 407,000 Twitter followers, she captioned the post: “Hanging out at @airtattoo waiting for @rafredarrows @RAFRed1 to fly our amazing @astro_timpeake…counting down…”
Fans flocked to comment with one person writing: “You are just perfection.”
Another person commented: “That flying suit fits you well!”
While a third person exclaimed: “Loving the jump suit perfection right there.”
Meanwhile, the BBC Radio Wales presenter opened up about an emotional moment she experienced as a young child.
Speaking to her co-host Owain Wyn Evans, the mathematician revealed she and her mother had moved out of her stepfather’s home for the circus but she left with one particular item which broke her mother’s heart.
Carol told listeners: “This bear called Bunji. He’s quite pink.
“When my mum left my stepfather for the first time, when she ran way to the circus with me and Bunji came.”
She continued: “And we were in this awful place with a broken window opposite Leicester prison. I think I was nine then. We were staying in there and she said, ‘It broke her heart because I said Bunji hadn’t got a home anymore’.
“And she thought, ‘Oh God I’ve got to do something to get out of this situation’.”
