Many of the ladies delivered all types of planes to their new bases. At the time it must have surprised a lot of the guys.

I watched an interview many years ago. Where the lady stated she just read the manual quickly and with no previous time on a type always got it there.

They built the Anson a light twin engine training plane in the local town during the second world war. I never checked but they were possibly delivered by air to western Canada from the east cost of Canada here. The weather and terrain made it ideal for training large numbers of aircrew there. In fact it probably was the largest commonwealth pilot training center in existence. We still build aircraft parts in town.
