EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a heartwarming moment in the life of Mandy Hopper, an 11-year-old girl from Ash Avenue, Gilesgate. Filled with dreams and aspirations, Mandy wrote a heartfelt letter to The Journals Fix It desk expressing her desire to become an air hostess. She longed for the experience of being on an airplane, something she had never encountered before. However, fate had other plans for young Mandy as a dispute among air traffic controllers' assistants caused a few weeks delay before she could fulfill her dream. Finally, that day arrived when Mandy was given the opportunity to join Dan Air Airline stewardesses on their BAC 1-11 flight from Newcastle to London. This photograph commemorates that significant milestone in Mandy's life. Standing proudly amongst the group of experienced stewardesses, she dons her uniform provided by Dan Air as a cherished memento of her big day.
