First Passenger Service

Apparently it's 90 years since the first scheduled air passenger service.

The BBC sent one of their plucky reporters up in a 1933 Tiger Moth, wrong aeroplane, but that's forgivable as there are none of the original converted bombers still flying.

Some nice footage, if you can tolerate the idiotic banter. But why does the pilot initiate a spin during the flight? Added realism? :=

Where are my goggles...

I heard that their luggage still hasn't turned up!
