I never had the pleasure or honour of meeting the lady, but I am still deeply saddened. She was one of the aviation "names" that I grew up with, and another character has now passed on into the sunset.
We have been so privileged to live our lives in this age of change, innovation and adventure. Sometimes it's easy to forget (amidst all the negatives of war, economics & politics) that the last few generations have been brightened by so many fine people, who nurtured and encouraged aviation from its early beginnings.
Happy Landings Anne
