Jessica Mackay has one dream � to be a pilot. Jessica lives on her family farm at Narromine, New South Wales, in the 1920s and 30s� the best place for a would-be pilot. Her father developed a passion for flying in Egypt during World War I, and even though women were among the first people to take on the challenge of the skies, Jessica�s ambitions are not supported by everyone, most notably her grandfather who has firm ideas about �a woman�s place� in the world.
