I suppose it's understandable, but there is a danger that some people who dont know the facts will have gained the impression recently that the ATA was entirely "manned" by female pilots. In fact women pilots accounted for less than 15% of the total strength. That's not to knock the achievements of those girls, but I think if I had been a male ATA pilot (do any survive?) or if my father had been one I might be slightly miffed that he was getting overlooked. I suppose half the problem is that these "Ancient and Tattered Airmen" tended to be far less photogenic than the girls, and the press and propaganda people concentrated the latter, but I think it's worth remembering the chaps at the same time
