Amy Johnson was a very ambitious and energetic person. She studied at a university and later took a job as a typist. Although she was enthusiastic and did her best, she made many mistakes and was poorly paid. She didn’t want to be a typist, anyway, she dreamed of becoming a pilot!
Amy moved to London, borrowed some money, and learned to fly. Nobody, however, wanted to hire a female pilot. She decided to fly alone to Australia to prove that she could fly as well as any man. Her parents lent her money to buy an airplane.
Amy set off on May 5, 1930. Her route took her over Vienna, Constantinople, and Baghdad. She was caught in a sandstorm and had to make an emergency landing in the desert. But she landed in India six days later. She had broken the record to India by two days. After experiencing some more hardship, she finally reached Australia. Amy had proven that she could fly and that a woman could do most anything she really put her mind to.

Why did she decide to fly alone to Australia?
