Daredevils & dreamers
Hear the recollections and watch what it was like in the rowdy, romantic twenties and thirties to be among the world's first masterful tenants of the sky. Meet America's record-breaking aviatrix, Elinor Smith, voted best woman pilot by her pilot peers; visiting German air ace, Ernst Udet who, to the amazement of Sunday crowds at Roosevelt Field, would whisk a handkerchief from the ground with his wingtip; the fabulous lion tamer and transcontinental speed king, Roscoe Turner; America's "Bad Boy of Aviation" and "greatest natural flyer then or since," the widely acclaimed Bert Acosta.
