Sense Sonnet - Pumper

Betty Miller, Pilot

Betty Miller, a pilot, she
Was the first female who did go,
In May of 1963,
Across the Pacific solo,
From Oakland, California to
Brisbane, Australia she did fly,
A twin engine Piper, brand new.
She made this historic flight, why?
She was delivering the plane
To a buyer, and thus became
An aviatrix in the main,
A fine flying female of fame.

All dressed up in the plane, no doubt,
Wearing high heels when she got out.
