I am not sure what she has done to qualify on this point.
The Master’s award recognises Tracey Curtis-Taylor’s work in raising awareness of science and technology in general
The above from the email to Daily Mail journalist Dave Jarvis.

Have I missed something?

What has she done to raise awareness of science and technology?

She sat in the back of the Stearman with airline pilot Ewald was up front. Boeing promoted the expedition to the worlds media as a solo flight.

Mr Gritsch admits he was in the forward cockpit for ‘the majority’ of the flights from Cape Town to Goodwood and Farnborough to Sydney. He said: ‘The situation was that it was not a solo flight.’

In Sydney he hid from the assembled media crew and Tracey made her flamboyant speach suggesting she had flown the entire trip alone.

In my book that is deception and certainly not 'honourable'.
