1930s FEMALE BEAUTY - VBCW PILOT

It had to happen. Our passing interest in colourised photographs of the 1930s generally, and specifically the Very British Civil War, so far confined to (inter alia) the shapely curves of the Polikarpov I-16 Rata, or the angular lines of the Vickers Mk.6 Light Tank, has finally thrown up a 1930s female beauty, and a daredevil pilot at that:

VBCW Pilot enjoys a nonchalant Woodbine before her very first
 "aerial patrol" over war-torn Herefordshire.

The colourised version - but who is this 'female beauty' ? And for whom does she fight ?

So far, most unusually for this VBCW Blog, absolutely nothing is known about our "colourised" aviatrix. So the hunt is on for a suitable name and, most importantly, a suitable 28mm figure. We can worry about her plane later....

Any suggestions - please add a "Comment" below !
