Hi All,

This week, at 10:45 each morning during Woman's Hour on Radio 4 there has been a 15 minute drama series called 'Tiger Wings'.

This is a story about an ex-wartime Air Transport Auxiliary pilot who in 1948 agrees to ferry a Fairchild Argus without radio from Blackbushe to somewhere in Africa.

It really portrays the period well.

Episodes already broadcasted should still be available on the BBC website.

Regards,

BP.

And why should that be reserved for pilots of one sex?
