    Summary

    Struggling to defy expectations during the height of WWII, Captain Stella Frank is determined to prove her worth as an Air Transport Auxiliary Pilot in the male-dominated world of aviation. As she navigates the skies with skill and determination, she encounters a diverse array of characters, each with their own struggles and triumphs. Among them is Major John "Bucky" Egan, whose charm, bravery, and dedication to his fellow pilots catch Frank's attention amidst the chaos of war. Can they navigate not only the treacherous skies but also the complexities of love and loyalty in a time of uncertainty and sacrifice? Or are they doomed to go down in flames like the world around them?

    Summary

    Bucky Egan had two sisters. His older sister was back in Wisconsin happily married with kids. His other sister, his baby sister on the other hand.... well who knows where she is! She left America in 1940 and Bucky hadn't seen her since. She stopped writing a while back.

    Charlie Egan left for London with the sole goal of nursing in their hospitals while the Germans blitzed the city with their bombs. Charlie soon realised she was in for a long war. One that took casualties and did not discriminate.

    Summary

    The first all-female flight crew to grace Thorpe Abbotts airfield, the crew of The Seraphim - affectionately nicknamed 'Abbotts' Angels' - come as a unit. Attached at the hip, even in spite of their differences, there is no doubt that every single one of them would put their own life on the line for their team if need be. And, as the war takes its toll, their camaraderie becomes the only thing keeping their heads above water as impossible circumstances threaten to rip them apart forever.

    -

    A series of one-shots following the crew of The Seraphim through the war and beyond - organised chronologically

    Summary

    John Egan/OFC.

    She wants to know every detail of what happened to him over the last few years, though she knows it’s likely a terrible story that would be hard for him to tell. She feels strongly that he shouldn’t carry it alone, not with how burdened he had felt when he left for the last time, mourning his best friend and the other members of his crew who hadn’t come back.

    “I might’ve wondered how you were.” He scratches the back of his neck. “Figured you’d be married and moved away by now.”

    “Still slinging ales at the pub, I’m afraid.”

    He arches an eyebrow. “Not to any hotshot pilots, I hope.”

    “Of course not.” She says with mock seriousness.
