Rosemary was a remarkable woman, very attractive even after 4 children! She was very aviation driven & paid for her flying training with her own money, so her husband couldn't complain. Started on little planks then qualified on helicopters in 1967 or so. Met her twice at Bankstown Airport when she had a Bell 47J2A. As you would expect she had great trouble finding commercial work as no one wanted a woman pilot in those days! She is still involved although nowadays she does more lecturing than flying being in her 70s.

Enjoyed a few hours in UTZ!
