Tavistock VE Day Celebrations 2025. Volunteer wearing the uniform of WW2 Air Transport Auxiliary, known as Attagirls.

The “Attagirls” was the nickname given to the brave women who worked for the Air Transport Auxiliary. They came from across Britain and neutral countries, and continued their work beyond the Second World War.
The training they received was different from pilots destined for combat. As they were required to fly within sight of the ground, they weren’t taught to use the onboard instruments. The women essentially flew blind, with just a map, a compass and a watch to guide them. As well, very little flight training was required, which differed from those serving on the frontlines.

The pilots often worked on a schedule of 13 days on, two days off. They also received equal pay for their work, which was a first for the British government. While initially restricted to flying non-combat aircraft, they were eventually permitted to pilot every type of aircraft flown by the Royal Air Force and the Fleet Air Arm (FAA), except for flying boats.

This group of women didn’t see combat during the conflict, but their job wasn’t without any risk. They dealt with similar weather conditions to pilots in the RAF and didn’t have the option of using navigational instruments. Over the course of the war, a total of 15 Attagirls lost their lives.
