SUMMARY:Event SW08: Solo 2 Darwin – in the Footsteps of Amy Johnson
DESCRIPTION:Arun & Chichester Air Enthusiasts Society presents a talk by Amanda Harrison\, Solo 2 Darwin: the story of how in 2019 she took off in her 1942 Tiger Moth biplane\, to honour Amy Johnson\, who\, in 1930\, was the first woman to fly solo from the UK to Darwin\, Australia. \nDo you have a dream that you have been told you can never realise? Amanda’s journey was one woman’s dream that she never gave up on\, even through the dark days of cancer. Amanda is the true spirit of adventure\, proving ordinary people can achieve something extraordinary. \nOn 11th May 2019\, she took off in her Tiger Moth in honour of Amy Johnson’s amazing journey to Darwin in 19 days. Most adventurers choose a modern aircraft to fly around the world in. Amanda wanted an authentic adventure in a vintage biplane with its cockpit open to all the elements\, for her solo voyage. \nThe Solo 2 Darwin adventure saw Amanda flying through spectacular scenery\, extreme temperatures\, two engine failures\, mountains of bureaucracy and finally having to end the attempt with the warning of the possibility of being shot down. \nThe talk will have you flying with Amanda\, who with trademark humour and tenacity\, will have you experiencing the drama\, the dangers and the sheer exhilaration of flying all by yourself in a tiny fragile aeroplane across the planet. This event is suitable for children aged 12 and over\, tickets on the door\, no advance booking.
