Amanda Harrison attempted to recreate the first solo flight by a woman from England to Australia in 1930.
That original journey was undertaken by the pioneering Amy Johnson in a Gipsy Moth, so Harrison, attempting to be as true to the challenge as possible, undertook hers in a 1942 Tiger Moth.
Unfortunately, she had to abandon her mission due to airspace restrictions in 2019, but she did have some adventures on the way.
In this special podcast, Harrison talks to host Adam Thorn about her incredible flight – and what’s next.
