Does anyone remember Dr. Helena Hamilton and her trusty Hornet Moth?
Remember seeing this frail little Lady (yes, with a capital L) depart from Stauning (Denmark) to the UK many, many years ago, in grey and drizzly weather while the entire hung-over, Ray-Ban equipped male pilot part of the attendees was wetting their surplus store flight suits while peering anxiously at the weather. Needless to say, she arrived safely.
If ever a woman in Europe was a role model for fellow aviatrices, then it was her. How many honours did she have bestowed on her?
