HCAP, The Air League and the Royal Aeronautical Society "he" might have pointed out that their awards were given out for a flight which was not flown solo, and which was advertised from the outset to be a flight with someone in the other cockpit.
What reason would there be to give TCT an award for a flight in which she was one of two pilots. Was the second pilot for those flights similarly awarded? If not, why not?
I understood the promotion of TCT's flight to "honour" the similar flights of Lady Heath & Amy Johnson- which were solo flights. If a pair of pilots made TCT's flight, with a support crew and aircraft, and modern navigation, what is award worthy of that flight?
