EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Meteorologists, August 1946" we are transported back to a significant moment in history. The image showcases a group of dedicated women from the Women's Auxiliary Air Force (WaF) meticulously checking weather conditions for an upcoming high-speed flight test. Taken by the talented photographer Charle E Brown, this snapshot captures the essence of postwar determination and record-breaking achievements. The women depicted here were part of an exceptional team responsible for providing crucial meteorological information to support RAF operations during that time. Their expertise was particularly vital as they prepared for a groundbreaking flight test, pushing the boundaries of speed and endurance. Through their unwavering commitment and meticulous analysis, these meteorologists played an instrumental role in ensuring safe flying conditions amidst unpredictable weather patterns. This photograph serves as a powerful testament to the invaluable contributions made by women in aviation history. It symbolizes their resilience, intelligence, and unwavering dedication to breaking barriers within traditionally male-dominated fields. As we admire this remarkable image from the Royal Air Force Museum archives, let us remember and celebrate these trailblazing individuals who paved the way for future generations of female aviators
