Test Pilot

on BBC Two England

Hanna Reitsch is the only known wartime female military test pilot. Her flying in Germany included a manned VI flying bomb, plus a glider the size of a jumbo jet that needed three fighters to lift it off the ground; and an indoor demonstration of an early helicopter at the Berlin motor show. All of which earned her a personal decoration from the Fuhrer. Film editor COLIN JONES Written and produced by BRIAN JOHNSON
