This is the incredible true story of a wartime sisterhood of women
pilots: a group of courageous pioneers who took exceptional risks
to fly Spitfires, Hurricanes and Lancasters to the frontlines of
World War II. The women pilots of Air Transport Auxiliary came from
all countries and backgrounds. Although not allowed into combat,
they demonstrated astonishing bravery in their supporting role:
flying unarmed, without radios or instruments, and at the mercy of
the weather and enemy aircraft, they delivered battle-ready planes
to their male counterparts, the fighter pilots of the RAF. The
story of these remarkable women pilots - among them Amy Johnson and
Lettice Curtis - is a riveting account of women in wartime, and a
fitting tribute to their spirit and valour.
