This is a polite request for any comments to relate to AH, not a.n-other. Thanks.

Looking forward to following Amanda's reports on the trip. She instructed me for a short while when I was getting flying back up to speed after a layoff. Very infections enthusiasm for flying.

[Chris Martyr]

Well done for posting that one CC.

Amanda looks to be a thoroughly good egg by my reckoning .

I will be following her progress with great interest and am more than happy to pledge support and feel I've done my bit in helping this great initiative come to fruition.

"Amanda looks to be a thoroughly good egg by my reckoning "

She certainly is. I'm pleased this is going ahaed after all she has been through and wish her every success.

She has a book out which is worth a read.

Amanda should be departing Biggin for Darwin today, according to a Facebook post she made yesterday ("Mand Harrison Solo2Darwin"). Best of luck to her

[Hooligan]

She's just departed Biggin. Nice to see her circling Croydon Airport yesterday afternoon.

Safe and successful trip!

Wow, respect to you Amanda.
Best of luck. I was hoping to see you on flight radar 24, but it does not seem to show up.
I wonder if Amy J had to do a big detour around Iran/ Iraq as well... probably not. Then again Amy did not have Sky Demon. It would be amazing if you could have shown Sky Demon to her, and seen what she thought of it.

No. In Iraq, then, most airfields were RAF, and Iran was definitely UK-friendly.

Now in Vienna. Bird strike during the landing roll-out which removed the spinner.

There's her tweet ( ) over here >>>>>>>>

I hope it won't create too long a pause.

[Melanie Moxon]

Lets hope it is a quick repair and she is underway again soon.

There was a live Web broadcast this morning from Vienna. She may fly without the spinner until a new one catches up with her.

Astonishing woman. She actually said "... then I read about Amy Johnson, and she was a normal woman like me". Personally I'd say Ms Harrison well surpasses "normal"

Very best of British luck to her.

Looking at her website, she is certainly a go-getter, and absolutely genuine with it too.

Solo to Australia in a Tiger Moth is quite a trip.
