Well said Sunday Driver.

Just after her first solo she qualified as the first British-trained woman ground engineer, the only woman in the world to do so at that time.
Amy was also the president of the Women's Engineering Society between 1935 and 1937.

To emulate her solo from the UK to Australia would require someone such as Amanda Harrison in a Tiger Moth.

The choice of a Stearman for both TCT's reality tv efforts is in no way near the original.
