This team of Waaaf technicians was the first to begin duty at station. None of the girls had experience of mechanics before joining up. Joyce Tysoe was a stenographer, now she is an aircraft rigger. Her job is to do maintenance work on airframes.' collection.sl.nsw.gov.au/record/9WZWwpzY - link to the Pix WAAAF series of pics at the SLNSW...a number of these pics also appeared in the Pix article.
