Beyond the Blue Horizon: Early Air Travel
Join Tom Powderly from the OLLI Speakers Bureau for this multimedia presentation about early air travel. While we take air travel for granted today, it was quite an adventure a century ago and available only to the wealthy. Using colorful travel posters and vintage film clips, we tell the story of those first exciting years of commercial aviation. From almost primitive flying machines to luxurious flying boats, the early days of commercial air travel were filled with technological advances, adventure and excitement.
This free presentation is made possible by the Speakers Bureau, a part of Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at the University of Delaware (OLLI). For more information visit olli.udel.edu.
