100 Years of Air Travel and other stories
This is my first post that has nothing to do with BB. OK, maybe a tiny something. I hate air travel for the same reason I hate roller coasters, I'm not driving! I hate being at the mercy of unknown people who may or may not be competent. Also, I get motion sick if I'm not driving. If I'm driving, I can do crazy things (like 120 laps at Mid Ohio) without getting sick. If someone drives me down to the mailbox, I am ill for the rest of the day. In any case, my recent, miserable air travel showed that several airlines have been flying for 100 years! The Wright Brothers made the first powered flight in 1903. That implies that we had functioning airlines in 1926. I had understood that the Wright flight was not even reported for several years! I think one of the most influential movies of my life (and maybe my brother's), was the Hallmark special featuring the Wright Brothers. I may have finally found it on MGM+ "The Winds of Kitty Hawk".
