Well Sam I was impressed by her talk at the Cambridge Aero Club a few weeks ago and I am going to the RAeS tomorrow, Thursday 16th November to listen to three female pilots including Tracey speak on 'Women in Aviation' organised by the Air League.
Her talk at Cambridge was by an woman with a real passion for aviation and especially vintage biplanes. She made no mention whatsoever of being solo on her flights and she has certainly been an inspirational speaker to huge numbers of young people during her trips emphasising the benefits of studying the STEM subjects at school.
We certainly need that sort of promotion across the world if we are to have sufficient scientists, technologists, engineers and mathematicians to ensure the well being of the UK in the future, I am sure you would agree with that sentiment.
I wish you well with the new venture and wish I could have successfully entered the rally. It will be a mind blowing experience for all involved.
