Stewardesses on BOAC, post-war
Stepwilk....I saw my pal this morning(Flight note on ATC cadet stewards
scientific workers | model aircraft | aircraft exhibition | 1944 | 2617 | Flight Archive ATC cadet steward
He thought that BOAC took on some young women as flight attendants for the Bristol(Whitchurch) to Rineanna(Shannon) shuttle which used DH Albatrosses originally, later Dakotas but not on the connecting flying-boats though women launch-crews attended the flying-boats at Poole.
