Tomorrow evening, I will be giving a talk for the Newfoundland and Labrador Historical Society.
I am thrilled to give this talk, and will be discussing a number of events in our aviation history, some of which I have covered on this blog and in other presentations.
I wanted to add this update to give some links to some of the articles, books, and websites to be referenced in the talk, so that you can have easy access if you heard something of interest.
Thank you to those who came, and to those who read my blog.
