AERODROME MANAGER
England now has the distinction of possessing the only woman aerodrome manager in the world, Miss Winifred Spooner, states a London newspaper. With the assistance of a single ground engineer, she is in sole charge of 4 tho private fleet of three aeroplanes owned by Mr. Lindsay Everard —member of Parliament and air enthusiast—and of his aerodrome at Ratcliffe-on-the-Wreke, Leicestershire. She lives near the aerodrome, and all her time, when she is not acting as Mr- Everard's chauffeur-pilot, is spent there. t Although she has . earned the admiration and respect of all associated with her, romance has never been coupled with her name. Romance? Marriage? Winifred Spooner is far too busy with the conquest of the air to bother about such things. Aviation is her whole life.
