This big-haired New York and Newport based socialite and aviation enthusiast co-founded Helicopter Flight Services in 1985. Topsy Taylor has been described as having “one of the last mid-Atlantic accents” and was married to the financier George McFadden (1941 – 2008) between 1969 and 1991. An early supporter of the City Harvest charity and the owner of Gooseberry Island, Newport, Taylor once commented: “I’m accepting of change… if I like the change”.

I love it when The Steeple Times find people who’ve changed or use names that are exotic or just plain silly… Topsy Taylor, Boaty Boatwright, Peter (Cary) Peterson, Muffie Potter Aston, Cognac Wellerlane, Margo Manhattan, Judy Joo……. You couldn’t make them up!!!!!!!!!
I like ladies who fly helicopters.
