2:58 "Wecks & Fireballs". Pretty shure most of US Navy's used Helium. Them Britts R27 or R101 not so. Wasn't the Dutch Fokkers that kicked off scheduled passanger service? Germany had Junker Metal Montoplanes in 20s, Britts still had their DeHavilland Dragon plywood biplane well into the 30s. Best of this vid is the silly-nilly background music that fits narration.
I love how this fully encapsulates the early 2000s aesthetic. Enya music in a documentary is such a choice and I love it.

Sounded more like an Airbus commercial rather then a history of commercial flight. 😆
It really does! That tracks given that this is a British documentary.
