Hey SkyGeeks! 🚀 Travel back in time with me to 1919 for the jaw-dropping story of the Great Australian Air Race! Imagine flying over 11,000 miles from England to Australia in under 30 days-using early 20th-century aviation tech! This daring feat was led by the incredible Smith brothers aboard their modified Vickers Vimy bomber, facing mechanical failures, treacherous weather, and navigation challenges. Against all odds, they touched down in Darwin after 27 days, cementing their place in aviation history. This adventure wasn't just a race; it was the dawn of long-distance air travel as we know it. Watch, learn, and relive the excitement of this iconic journey with SkyGeeksUK!
