There is also Diana Barnato Walkers autobiography, "Spreading My Wings", first published 1994, by Patrick Stephens Ltd. A truly amazing read. The legendary Amy Johnson was also lost in the Thames Estuary while on an ATA delivery flight of an Airspeed Oxford in 1941. (ref "Amy Johnson" by Midge Gillies, published Weidenfeld and Nicholson).
I was priveleged to have received my first few flying lessons from an ex ATA lady called Monique Agazarian (spelling may not be quite correct) who held my attention over many cups of coffee with tales of Spitfires and Lancasters. Does anybody have any idea whether she is still with us?
Undoubtedly a remarkable and extremely brave group of ladies, whóse like I doubt we shall see again. From the comfort of my warm and comfortable 777 flight deck, I salute them all
