The Woman Who Conquered The Skies
Set in the stunning MOTAT Aviation Hall, Ngā Kōrero Rererangi Aviation Conversations is an evening series which celebrates aviation in Aotearoa and the Pacific, from the innovations of the past to the technologies shaping its future.
This upcoming conversation celebrates one of New Zealand’s greatest aviation pioneers, Jean Batten. This year marks the 90th anniversary of Jean's historic flight from England to Aotearoa, landing at Māngere Aerodrome - now Auckland Airport.
Join Susan Tolich, Curator of Transport and Curatorial Research at MOTAT as she shares how Batten navigated vast distances, why she selected her aircraft, and the ingenious modifications she made to support her journeys.
Doors open at 6:30pm, with the conversation beginning at 7:00pm.
Bookings are essential.
