Researching and reporting on the lives of some really interesting people (RIP)

BILL MOYES, aged 92

A man who knew no fear and who regularly cheated death (just), he is credited with making hang-gliding a popular sport worldwide – The Australian Birdman.

GENE NORA JESSON, aged 87

A highly skilled pilot, she was one of the Mercury 13 – training to be a woman astronaut. This never came to fruition but she was one of the Three Musketeers.
