Re: Spitfire's first(?) Pilot ?
In most cases flown from factory (first to an MU for checks etc.) by an ATA pilot from one of the Ferry Pools; from 1939 to 43 they came under Ferry Command, then Transport Command. ATA had an Advanced FTS at their HQ at White Waltham, Berks. At various times housed Nos. 3 and 1 Ferry Pilots Schools.
