Adversity in the Winter Night Skies: The Story of Canada`s Prairie Air Mail 1930-1932

Описание к видео Adversity in the Winter Night Skies: The Story of Canada`s Prairie Air Mail 1930-1932

On September 19, 1928, a de Havilland Giant Moth took off on an air mail flight between Winnipeg, Manitoba and Calgary, Alberta. High winds meant the aircraft took two days to reach its destination (today it can be flown in two hours), but it was the start of air mail service in the prairies. Clark Seaborn describes the early prairie air mail flights, as well as the aircraft used and the challenges faced by those early pioneers. This presentation was originally given to CAHS Manitoba Chapter in May 2022.
