Do you mean like this Danny?

I have to say that picture and honour winds me up. My youngest son is a Lt on HMS Westminster.
To get there took four years of university plus a year passing RN officer pre entry and another year at Dartmouth.
The Lord High Admiral will be hearing from me over the next few weeks and I will post the reply on here.
TCT had a well funded joy ride with a commercial pilot and engineer up front and claimed all the credit.
In my opinion she has done nothing to promote women in aviation or STEMS.

I'm not up to speed with QRs for such, but I think the rule is that the junior rank can be addressed as such by other people, but should not declare it themselves.
Perhaps a well informed Pongo or Fish Head might care to enlighten us all?
What I am sure of, is that writing it down, pretending to have the full rank, is another matter.

I have not seen those PR videos before Above The Clouds.
I am staggered she still implies she has flown "round the world" (sic)

The title of the series is apt.
Renegade...
I have yet to see evidence she has flown around the UK
I need to ask Ross Ashcroft some questions. He produced the you tube videos above.
There is never any tribute to the fact that Ewald was up front.

a person who deserts and betrays an organization, country, or set of principles.

Interesting contribution there Above The Clouds. It certainly underlines her Walter Mitty credentials . Anyone who had no insight into her somewhat questionable past would be forgiven for thinking , 'what an amazing person'. I actually happen to agree with that , but not for reasons that she would appreciate.
She speaks as if she actually knew AJ ! Quote; "I'd always seen Amy as quite demure", Not to mention these little gems at 2:49 & 4:30 where she twice refers to AJ as "not being a very good pilot".....................[]
Plus she didn't miss out on the opportunity to malign the male sex . Irony indeed from someone whose mastery in male manipulation has almost become the thing of legends. In fact , the only males she doesn't like are the ones who see straight through all her pretending and malarkey.
As for those dreadful men down at Stag Lane...Did she actually think she was there ? Not to mention the "white males" , without whom our country's fascinating history would've been just a blank sheet.
What garbage ! But the laughable thing is , she believes it !
And she's fooled better men than me...
Footnote ; My apologies to the fine lady pilots who have contributed to this thread , the gender balance exposes the claptrap spouted forth by Curtis-Taylor.

I have a feeling that our intrepid Aviatrix is about to come to the fore again. My friends that move in slightly different social circles to mere mortals are aware something is "in the air".

In due course, she and her team will win through, her publicity will once again soar, the awards and recognition will come and us on here will all be portrayed as a sorry lot of internet trolls.
I'm sorry, tis the fake world we live in. *sigh*
From ricardian on the Brevet thread:- The 101-year-old woman who flew Spitfires in WW2 - BBC News
Mary Ellis says she encourages women to take up flying - can you see any difference between her and the one above?

Given any search for TCT returns nothing but details of the rescinded award on the first page, I think you'll find 'The Bird in a Biplane' adventure is now a busted flush and any further attempts to revive it will be met with failure. Probably, much like this thread
Oh no! TCT is going to the Moon, forever!

The Arch Mission Foundation is sending a "Lunar Library" to the moon in 2020 on a private Astrobotic lunar lander. The library consists of tiny discs of laser-etched nickel and includes the contents of Wikipedia and much more.

But if, as suggested a few posts back, there are "plans to the fore" - and I have also learned of a last ditch desperate gesture of defiance from her 'team' - then it can only prolong the agony unnecessarily .
As far as I am concerned, it all ended in October 2016. And as CP points out, "any further attempts to revive it will be met with failure".

I agree with you entirely CP. But this business about reviving this thread is a two way deal. If Curtis-Taylor is also happy to accept that the whole thing is a busted flush, then it certainly will find its natural end.

Trying to sell the story of any Earthrounders video to broadcasters is difficult because it has become routine.The same applies to boaties who take a year going around the world.
This thread is interesting for notching up over a million views without Tracey Curtis Taylor ever answering the allegations she never flew solo.
Meanwhile I look forward to the summer and perhaps Tracey proving us all wrong and flying the Stearman at various displays on her own.

Interesting to see the same tall, bearded gentleman is once again in the same photo frame. Friends in high places...
