Episode 4. ‘God ‘Elp All Of Us’ – The first flight from England to Australia
Greg speaks to journalist Lainie Anderson about the incredible true story of South Australia’s Smith Brothers, who, with their trusty mechanics Wally Shiers and Jim Bennett, became the first Australians to fly from England to Australia in 1919, in a feat global aviation experts have likened to man landing on the moon 50 years later. Thanks this week to journalist Lainie Anderson, John Fitzgerald, Gordon Poole and Bob Byrne. Sounds via FreeSound.Org All sounds used under the various licences of Creative Commons.
