Edwards was one of the 168 women recruited for the ATA. “We first learned to fly on Harts and Hinds (two-seater light bomber biplanes). They just floated in the air,” said Edwards. “We were trained to fly all over the U.K. without communicat- ing with the ground at all. We had no labels on our maps, and once you took off, you were on your own.” Over the next two and a half years, Edwards flew over 500 hours solo, sometimes venturing up to Scotland, other times flying several short ferry hops in a single day. The only casu- alty she witnessed occurred the first weekend of her arrival at the training base; another pilot-in-training who had arrived alongside Edwards crashed during landing and was engulfed in flames. It was a sobering start for Edwards. “Thank God it wasn’t me.” When asked what was the most dif- ficult airplane to fly, Edwards replied, “None, really. See, we were taught how to fly them all.” She admits, however, that when first shown how to do a stall-turn, her stomach said “No more of that!” Her instructor, who was seated behind her and had to clean up the mess, agreed. Her favourite plane? “I’ll always have British Columbia’s COPA Flight 175 a certified pilot. She received her a soft spot for the Hurricane.

Throughout my life I have celebrated milestone birthdays by taking flight in unique ways. When I turned 10, the members of our local flying club gifted me a flight in a Tiger Moth, flown by the late Second World War veteran Stan Miller. When I turned 20, I went skydiving. At 30, I was gifted a flight in a B-29

Superfortress, one of only two airworthy examples left in existence. JP Bonin p hoto:

30 copa flight | february 2019 FIFI, as it is affectionately known, is owned by the Commemorative Air Force (CAF) and has been a staple of airshows across the U.S. since its res- toration in the mid-1990s. In 2018, FIFI made its first visit to Canada. As docu- mented last year in COPA Flight, FIFI made stops at a number of airports throughout Ontario and Quebec in July and August. My flight was to take place in Peterborough on August 5. The weather on that morning was very typical for an early August day in southern Ontario; light winds and some early morning haze. With visions of getting a picture of our 172 parked next to FIFI dancing in my head, I thought it would be a great idea to fly from our farm to Peterborough. Without delay, we were airborne and on our way. My fiancée, the instigator of all of this, was riding in the right seat. Fol- lowing proper MF procedures, I called UNICOM to get an airport advisory. I was informed that the airport was closed to all incoming traffic. Closed? How could that be? Don’t they know that FIFI is supposed to fly today? Out of desperation, I asked if there was some way they could make an excep- tion for a passenger on FIFI...no luck. As it turns out, there was a NOTAM published that the runways would be closed until 09:30 due to a running event on the runway. (The moral of this is to always check your NOTAMs.) Knowing that we couldn’t be late and just take ‘the next flight’, we hur- COPA’s Ontario director Clark ried back to the farm, landed, got in both in the present and in wartime, Morawetz can hardly contain his joy our car and broke a land speed record and gave us the opportunity to try as he experiences flight in one of only to get to Peterborough before the out each seat.
