'Bird in a biplane' blames 'old boy vendetta' for solo flight row after being stripped of an award amid lying claims

I am sure this description of the LAA will raise a few hackles at todays Sywell AGM.
Many of the members are ex-military men and about 80 to 90 per cent are over 60. They act like some kind of old boys' club.
The solo claims are once again denied.
Ms Curtis-Taylor admits that in a 'slip of the tongue' during one interview, she inadvertently used the term 'solo' to describe the trip.'I was doing everything to promote the female pioneers who did fly solo, but I never claimed to be doing the same. I was, however, the only pilot. No one flew but me.'’
It appears the Light Aviation Association is riddled with jealous ageing misogynists.
I've often felt like an outsider because it has been made clear that some resented seeing a woman doing something that they don't do.
