2016 is the 75th anniversary of the death of Amy Johnson, Hull’s flying heroine. Born in 1903, Amy Johnson CBE was the first woman to fly solo from England to Australia and set a string of other records throughout her career.
A Festival is to mark this anniversary and celebrate Amy’s life, achievements and legacy with an ambitious international programme of the arts and engineering sciences appealing to all interests and ages. http://amyjohnsonfestival.co.uk/

Some nice articles there Tom. I quite like the look of that DH60G kit, though I know that 'Amodel' kits have a reputation for being quite labour intensive if you want a nice model at the end of it, due to their 'short run' production?
I think that woman who cheated will never be taken seriously again though and rightly so!?
Dear old Amy Johnson!!
