It is still less than fifty years since the Wright brothers in 1903 made history by being the first men to achieve sustained flight. This evening the mobile cameras visit the recently opened galleries of the Science Museum which house the National Aeronautical Collection. During this programme viewers see some of the interesting exhibits which mark important milestones in the advance of aviation.
W. T. O'Dea, Head of the Department, and P. L. Sumner, Officer in charge of its Aeronautical Collection are your guides.
Programme introduced by Raymond Baxter.
