ADA BARCLAY
OMG!!! We had a phone call to find out if there is a maximum age restriction on who we can take for a flight. The answer was no, and could we book a 10-minute flight for a special birthday surprise. When we met Ada Barclay who was celebrating her 101-year birthday, we were gobsmacked, this woman was amazing and did not look or act her so called age. Not that many of us know what 101 yrs feels like. We would love to thank Ada’s family for thinking of Barossa Helicopters as her special birthday surprise. Casey, Thank you for sending through the photos. The photos are of 3 generations, Casey Carter, the granddaughter who organised the surprise, Doug Ada’s son and of course that very special lady, Ada.
