Early Airmail Delivery

Posted on August 25, 2024 by Stella

This is fascinating. Have you ever heard about these early navigational aids for airmail planes that were built in the 1920’s?

The first effort at 2-day delivery. According to an article I read the other day, we will be lucky in the near future to get delivery of first class mail to our homes 3 days a week. How far the mighty have fallen!
