EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1940s at London Airport. The image showcases a remarkable woman named Topsy Watts, who was a radar tracker at the airport during that time. Sitting before an impressive apparatus, Topsy is depicted as the epitome of dedication and expertise. With her skilled hands resting on the controls, it becomes evident that Topsy has played a crucial role in ensuring the safe landing of countless airliners. Her unwavering focus and precision have guided these massive aircraft through their journeys with utmost safety. As we delve into this historic moment frozen in time, we can't help but admire Topsy's pioneering spirit as one of very few women working in such a male-dominated field. Her presence challenges societal norms and inspires future generations to break barriers fearlessly. The switchboard operator behind her signifies the interconnectedness between various departments involved in aviation safety during that era. This photograph serves as a testament to teamwork and collaboration required for successful flight operations.
