That is what this thread is all about.
Can I just ask what you and others have given awards for?
What has she achieved?
Why no award for Ewald who built a beautiful Stearman?
A dual flight with one person getting awards?
That is sexism.
Jonzaro..
Can you post your questions again?
Yes, of course I am aware of what was said in the media about solo flight and I bet she regrets not correcting them at the time. Ive also been sent a copy of her interview at Herne Bay. Yes the public has been misled, but she has recently corrected that with a very clear statement. My reason for entering this thread - and I might wish I hadnt(!)- was to make clear that the award given by The Air League was for a flight carrying a passenger, that she should be given some credit for two very gutsy and credit worthy flights, and that people might consider leaving her alone and not sniping at her over everything and anything - including Maurice Kirk. Actually he deserves to be sniped at, but it appears he is being idolised by many! That's another thread which I won't involve myself with!
Actually, having said what I said, it's clear that you zealots/hyenas won't take a blind bit of notice.....!
And I still don't understand the need for a mask of anonymity!!
