Timeline
Edwards died age 103 on 15 August 2022, in Vancouver. She was the last living British member of the Attagirls, as the women pilots of the ATA were known.
When Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, approved the award of a commemorative badge to those who had served in the ATA, a badge was sent to Edwards for presentation in Vancouver. She returned to Britain in 2011 for an ATA commemorative event.
In the first years of the war, there were no roles for women pilots, so Edwards worked as a nurse. Early in 1943 Edwards saw a newspaper advertisement for women pilots to join the Air Transport Auxiliary and immediately applied. She was appointed as a third officer and began ferrying single-engine aircraft. She was posted to No 7 Pool based at Sherburn-in-Elmet in Yorkshire, near a number of aircraft factories. During her service, Edwards flew twenty different types of aircraft, often with very little training and always solo. She said that she disliked aerobatics and most enjoyed flying the Hawker Hurricane.
She became interested in flying having seen barnstormers and aerial circus acts. Watching her mother get on board a biplane and take off for Paris was a pivotal memory, and she was inspired by the exploits of the New Zealand aviator Jean Batten. In 1939 she began flight lessons in a de Havilland Tiger Moth. She gave her profession as "Flying Student" in the 1939 register. Edwards was awarded her pilot's license after passing her test on 16 August 1939, flying a De Haviland DH 60 Moth at Romford Flying Club. She recalled receiving her license in the post on 4 September of that year, the day after war was declared.
Stella "Jaye" Edwards (12 October 1918 – 15 August 2022) was a British aviator. Edwards, who was nicknamed "Jaye" and "Pete", flew Royal Air Force warplanes for the Air Transport Auxiliary (ATA) during World War II.
She was born Stella Joyce Petersen on 12 October 1918 at Beckenham, Kent. The third of four daughters, with a younger brother, her father John Richard Sydney Petersen was an Australian trader and her mother Stella Courtenay (nee Dawson) (1885-1951) read Natural Sciences at Girton 1904-07, received a BA in 1907 from Trinity College Dublin (quasi ad eundem) and MA (Cantab)before becoming a science teacher before her marriage.
