Sheila Scott OBE (27 April 1922 – 20 October 1988), was an English aviator.
Born Sheila Christine Hopkins in Worcester, Worcestershire, England in 1922, educated at the Alice Ottley School, she broke over 100 aviation records through her long distance flight endeavours, which included a 34,000-mile (55,000 km) "world and a half" flight in 1971. On this flight, she became the first person to fly over the North Pole in a small aircraft.
Born Sheila Christine Hopkins, she had a turbulent childhood in Worcester and did not do well at school, nearly being expelled several times. During WWII, she joined the services as a nurse in a naval hospital.
In 1943, she started a career as an actress as Sheila Scott, a name she maintained long after she stopped acting. She had a short marriage from 1945 to 1950 to Rupert Bellamy.
In 1958 she learned to fly going solo at Thruxton Aerodome after nine months of training. On 20 November 1966, she appeared as a contestant on the American panel show What's My Line.

Fingazz]
"Fin-fin-fin-fin-Fingazz on the track"
Hook: Down
You do it in the club
You do it in the 'Llac
All the girls love when you skate to the track
Do it like this
And like that
Hey DJ, run it back, let me skate to that
[Fingazz]
"I-I, I wanna get my skate on"
"Wanna get my cholo skate on"
"I, I wanna skate"
"I, I wanna skate"
"Skate, cho, cholo skate"
[Verse 1: Down]
Skate down the block on chrome D's
Lean Like A Cholo, that's me
I ain't the type to be dancin'
My six-three just to bouncin' {*screeching*}
I put it on three
So cold, I give you brain freeze
I see you watchin' me
Come here, little mama, and hold these
You know I'm jokin'
Put you on the team, I'm good at coachin'
I, am
Always scopin'
An itty gritty over there always loc'in'
Refrain: Down
Bounce
Flow
Cholo skatin'
Like my shoes were made by Daytons
Just glide
And hit side to side
And if you ain't with it, then you probably hatin'
Chorus: Fingazz
"I wanna get my skate on"
"Wanna get my cholo skate on"
"I, I wanna get my skate on"
"I wanna get my skate on"
"Wanna get my cholo skate on"
"I-I, I wanna get my skate on"
"Wanna get my cholo skate on"
"I, I wanna skate"
"I, I wanna skate"
"Skate, cho, cholo skate"
(Verse 2)
(Down in background) {Down *slowed down*}
[Down] You ain't never heard no shit like this
Kilo got that new sound
Old school with a gangsta twist
I'm brown and I put it down
Hey girl, take off the cuffs
How you gon' put your elbows up
[Fingazz] "Elbows up"
"Side to side"
"El-elbows up-up, side to side" (Like a cholo)
[Down] Like I said
I like you
I like you, only now, I want 'em all
It's all good
Still in the hood
Only now, I can buy the whole damn mall
Now look at her skate down real low
Girl, show me how low you go
Slow down for the dip like low pros
Lollipoppin' that thing in {slow mo}
Repeat Chorus
Break: Down
I'm so fresh
And so clean
We G'd up
And still lean
But now we skate with it
Better get with it
Gotta switch in it
Now drop when I hit it
Like this
And like that
All the girls love when we skate to the track
Just like this
And like that
Hey DJ, run it back, let me skate to that
