RAF006B ATA Amy Johnson

Amy Johnson Born 1 July 1903 – disappeared 5 January 1941
Amy Johson will forever be an icon of flying. With her flying exploits pre WW II well documented, with most famously flying solo from the UK to Australia in 1930. When WW II began the company she worked for was taken over by the air ministry and in May 1940 Johnson joined the newly formed ATA, transporting RAF aircraft around the country. On January 5[SUP]th[/SUP] 1941, while flying an Airspeed Oxford, Johnson went off course in adverse weather conditions. Reportedly out of fuel, she bailed out, the aircraft crashed into the Thames Estuary near Herne Bay. A ship from a passing convoy diverted after see her parachute, but weather was too bad, the tide was strong and it was freezing cold in the water. Ropes were thrown out to her, but she could not grab them and was lost under the ship. A second body was seen in the water, HMS Haslemere Captain, Lt Cmdr Walter Fletcher, dived into the water, got to the body, but they were dead. By the time Fletcher was recused he was unconscious and die in hospital a few days later, Fletcher was posthumously awarded the Albert Medal in May 1941. There has always been some controversy surrounding what happened, that she was shot down by an RAF pilot after failing to give the correct radio signals.
As a member of the ATA with no known grave (her body was never recovered), Johnson is commemorated, under the name of Amy V. Johnson, by the Commonwealth War Graves Commission on the Memorial at Runnymede. Johnson's watertight flying bag, her log book and cheque book later washed up and were recovered near the crash site.

Welcome to the April 2024 release newsletter, we are not fooling around this month, as we have releases from our two most popular ranges, Roman and WW2 Germans. Plus a new RAF figure of probably the most famous British female pilot of all time, Amy Johnson.

We are working on some new vehicles and figure ranges. To increase current ranges and to expand ranges we have not released figures for a while, while still developing completely new ranges.

We are close to completing the US Artillery Piece, the crew, and the US Truck. The next few months will see the release of some new Luftwaffe figures and a new tank that was the workhorse for the German army in WW2.


All these items are now on our website and will be available for dispatch by Friday 12th April 2024, if not sooner.
 
Great releases this month. I hope to grab some Praetorians before they sell out...
Best Wishes
Paddy for Pat & Paddy
 
Love the new fighting Praetorians. Hmmm... have to decide on a shield pattern.
New SS Troopers look great as well. Appreciate the new fighting/charging poses. Now we just need some new US Troops for a combat scene.
Excellent line-up this month!
Thanks TG. :salute::
 
Wow, the fighting Praetorians are a must. I have ordered two of each of the fighting figures. Ignoring the signifier as i have one of all the other previous releases. This signifier is similar to the last i purchased except for the face mask.
i am all in on the action
 
I may have to break out the Praetorian ship again:
