- While this query goes back more than 5 years I think I now have found the answer to where the mistake back then laid: According to a book about him I recently have been given as a present, Jim Hazelton back in September, 1964, became the first Australian to fly solo across the Pacific in a single-engined aeroplane. The bit that would potentially have made the hook correct was the word solo, I think. This is also confirmed by this source. For some reason, back then, I missed that bit and consequently got the hook wrong. Calistemon (talk) 09:16, 8 August 2021 (UTC)
