If you watch the weather forecasts after the BBC News in the UK, you will be familiar with Sarah Keith-Lucas. Her great grandfather Keith Lucas, who worked at the Royal Aircraft Factory, invented the aeronautical compass, and following his death in a flying accident in 1913, a road in Farnborough was named in his honour.
