Surely in the whole history of the human race no girl has achieved such brilliant world-wide fame as Miss Amy Johnson who all alone in a second-hand Moth Aeroplane flew across the wide track of ocean and desert in her perilous flight from England to Australia, a distance of 9,500 miles, in twenty-eight days, eighteen of which were spent in the air. For this marvellous feat of endurance and courage His Majesty the King awarded Miss Johnson the C.B.E.
