William Ewart Hart
William Ewart Hart (20 April 1885 - 29 July 1943) was an Australian aviator and dentist. He was the first qualified pilot in Australia.〔Isaacs, Keith, ("Hart, William Ewart (Bill) (1885–1943)" ), "Australian Dictionary of Biography", 1983. Retrieved 2014-07-23.〕 His aviator's licence, No. 1, was issued on 5 December 1911 by the Aerial League of Australia.
Hart was born and educated in Parramatta. Aged 16 he was apprenticed to a local dentist, Mr Maxwell. He was registered as a dentist on 26 June 1906.〔Bullivant, June, ("The Hart Family and their Contribution to Parramatta including their favourite son William Ewart Hart (Billy the Flying Dentist)" ), "Granville Historical Society", 2011-11. Retrieved 2014-07-24.〕 After registration he practiced as a dentist in Wyalong, where he rode the first motorcycle and drove the first car in town. He went on to practice in Newcastle.
In September 1911 Hart met Joseph Hammond who was touring Australia as a demonstration pilot for the British & Colonial Aeroplane Company. He bought (for £1,333) a Bristol Boxkite from Hammond, received some instruction from Hammond's mechanic, McDonald. A gale blew the plane, which was parked at Belmore Park, Penrith, over, and it was wrecked. Hart, with the help of friends and the mechanic, built a new aircraft, using some salvaged parts. He first flew the machine, solo, on 3 November. The next day he flew from Penrith to Parramatta with his younger brother Jack as passenger.
