Several weeks ago SBS aired "The Greatest Air Race". This is the story of the 1919 flight of Ross & Keith Smith with Bennett and Shiers.

Just started the book, good read. It is interesting to note that the 10K prize with split evenly between all the crew members. This post has been edited by GregHyde on Dec 19 2019, 08:32 PM |
