Why Is Jean Batten famous?

Hello! Like last week with Sir Edmund Hillary, we are now doing Jean Batten. We had to answer the same question but instead about Jean Batten. 

Here are some reasons why I think Jean Batten is famous.

• She flew solo from England to New Zealand
• She flew solo from England to Australia
• She was honored by Te Arawa
• She went all around the globe in her De Havilland Gipsy Moths and her Percival Gull Six.

Do you know who Jean Batten is? Would you like to be a pilot when you grow up? Thanks for looking at my blog! BLOG YA LATER!
