Amy Johnson was an English aviator, or aviatrix, born on 1 July 1903 in Kingston upon Hull, England. She became the first woman to fly from England to Australia. On 5 May 1930, Johnson left Croydon, England, in her De Havilland Gypsy Moth which she named Jason. She landed in Darwin in Australia's Northern Territory on 24 May 1930.

She also made several other significant flights. In July 1931 she and her co-pilot Jack Humphreys became the first pilots to fly from London to Moscow in one day, completing the 2,800 km journey in approximately 21 hours. From there, they continued across Siberia and on to Tokyo, setting a record time for flying from England to Japan. In July 1932, she set a solo record for the flight from London, England to Cape Town, South Africa in a Puss Moth. The record was later broken, but Johnson reclaimed her record in a Percival Gull in May 1936.
