You know what I find really sad about all this? Amanda Harrison, Tiger Moth instructor and by all accounts an excellent pilot, has wanted to repeat Amy Johnson's flight since before she even had a licence. It's been pretty much a lifetime ambition. But Amanda has no money and was going to rely on sponsorship. Now she can't get any. Everyone thinks Tracy went first, and isn't interested. "inspiration she provides to young people"? More like helping to destroy their dreams. Nice work Tracy, I hope you're proud of yourself. :-(
