Female pilot(s) at Shuttleworth

Prompted by Elliot’s images of the PO2 under restoration at Old Warden, who here would like to see this displayed exclusively by female pilots as a tribute to the bravery of the ‘Night Witches’?

The Collection already has a female pilot

From left to right, from the back:

Jim Schofield; Rex Morley; Frank Chapman; Dodge Bailey; Trevor Roche; looks a bit like Willy Hackett, not entirely sure; Steve Roberts?; Chris Huxtep; John Morris; Dave McKay; Rob Millinship; Paul Stone; Paul Shakespeare; Sir John Allison; Keith Dennison; Peter Holloway and Tracey Curtiss-Taylor.

I believe that’s right…not too certain about Mr Roberts though.

That’s a good question, it would be nice to put names to the faces.

I believe she is also the owner of a very nice whippet.

Sadly the Whippet is no more 🙁

😀 Oooh – and who is this female pilot? 😀

I believe it is Tracey Curtis-Taylor, who flies the Ryan.

Thanks Kev, I missed that totally 🙂

Must look up Spec Savers in the phone book, once I’ve found it.

How the b****y hell did they get that big white thing down at Old Warden? Or more to the point, how the **** did they get it off again!

The uniforms look like they might be reasonably authentic. I am not so convinced by the footwear.

Moggy

Footwear definitely not standard issue. I have always thought the Night Witches are not given the credit and recognition they deserve. Wholeheartedly agree with your suggestion.
