About

Leaves from the log book of a British airwoman in war and peace including the first full story of the Air Transport Auxiliary.

Veronica Volkersz was one of only 166 female WWII Air Transport Auxiliary pilots. She qualified as a pilot in 1939, joining the ATA in 1941 as a 1st Officer, later promoted to Flight Captain and qualified to fly all single and twin-engined aircraft types. She is also notable for her regular post-war military contract flying and for being the first woman anywhere in the world to pilot an operational jet fighter.

Illustrated with monochrome images.
