Hopefully there will be some interviews with domestic Pilots were part of that era. Also the accidents that occured during the 1950's and 1960's.ie the F27 at MKY in 1960 and the Viscounts and subsequent enquiries that let to Australia introducing the CVR/FDR's to improve accident investigation and safer skies.
Saw the second episode, maybe they might actually show a bit about aviation in the final episode, but I doubt it. So far, just a huge moan. Not a mention about the huge contribution of GA, the military, helicopter operations or so many other areas that make up the 100 years of Aviation history in Australia.
