Shirley Flight Air Hostess Series - List of Titles

This is the text of an eBay guide that I created in 2006.  The guides are now orphaned pages that can only be found through an Internet search.  eBay plans to delete the guides in April 2018.

The Shirley Flight Air Hostess Series was published exclusively in the United Kingdom by World Distributors during the 1960s.  The books were written by Judith Dale and Trudi Arlen.  Judith Dale is a known pseudonym of writer Edward Reginald Home-Gall, and Home-Gall likely wrote all of the books which are credited to Judith Dale. 

The Shirley Flight Air Hostess Series is the British counterpart of the Vicki Barr Flight Stewardess Series.

The Sally Baxter Girl Reporter, Sara Gay Model Girl, and Kit Hunter Show Jumper series were also published by World Distributors in the United Kingdom.

Availability

Since this series was published in the United Kingdom, nearly all books that come up for sale originate in the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand.  It appears that all of the titles went through about the same number of printings and that multiple titles were issued simultaneously.  It is generally no more difficult to acquire the last titles in the series as it is the earlier titles.
