Irish Athlete & Aviator Lady Mary Heath - Documentary

Written by aislingc

DUBLIN, IRELAND (Team Geared Up) This is a fascinating story, not just a gripping “true to life adventure story” but an amazing human drama which movie makers are looking for help in order to get backing. Via Lindie Naughton’s blog:

To get backing at the Sheffield Documentary Festival it needs LOTS of hits, so pass on the word (please!) and add your comments. We really need to get this film made soon, since the number of people of her generation who still remember Lady Mary is getting fewer by the minute.

World record breaking athlete and pioneering aviator, Lady Mary Heath is most famous for her solo flight from Cape Town to London in 1927. For more fascinating insight into an incredible life have a look here.
