Distinguished and Famous people from Jandakot and Surrounds

🩺 Robin Miller Dicks

Flying nurse Robin Miller Dicks became known as the Sugarbird Lady through her work delivering polio vaccine to remote Aboriginal communities. The vaccine was given on sugar lumps, providing the memorable nickname. She later worked with the Royal Flying Doctor Service at Jandakot, combining nursing and piloting skills. A memorial aircraft at the airport recalls that contribution; it represents her Mooney rather than being the original aircraft she flew. Her local association links the airfield with the practical medical work carried out across Western Australia.
