Once again ATA pilot = woman pilot, in spite of the fact that they only accounted for around 19% of the strength of the organisation.

I also hope the participation of the Blenheim, Beafighter, Gladiatior, Defiant and Whirlwind crews as well as 804 and 808 RNASs will not be overlooked.
A vain hope I fear. Everyone knows that the Battle of Britain was won by young RAF officers flying Spitires - except that it wasn't.
