100 Years of Civil Aviation with Ben Skipper

Civil aviation is a vast undertaking and one that kept me in and out of trouble for 20 years of my working life. Author Ben Skipper has taken on the task of looking at the subject from the 1919 Paris Convention through to the end of the 747's service. From monks jumping off towers through Olive Beach being a badass to what comes next, join us as we take a whistlestop tour of flight without military interference.
