Roberta Elizabeth Marshall Cowell (1918 – 2011) was a British racing driver and Second World War fighter pilot. She was the first known British trans woman to undergo gender-affirming care & surgery in 1951. Here she is posing with racing car, with her father, and with friends. And happy!

Her story is limited to 16 languages on Wikipedia (and neglected articles). And her talk page flags her of low importance for Wikimedia projects Motorsports, Women's History, and Women's Sports.
I found these (and more!) lovely pictures here: www.digitaltransgenderarchive.net/catalog?utf8...
