Longest Commercial Flight in Canada
Popular Mechanics – May 1921
The longest commercial passenger flight in Canada was accomplished a few weeks ago when an airplane with pilot, passenger, and mechanic, flew from Winnipeg, Man. To the The Pas Sask, a distance of 487 miles. The flying time for the trip was six hours and twelve minutes.
The long flight was into the North Country and was made without previous arrangements having been made for landing grounds, gasoline, etc. The landing at Hudson Bay had to be made in a swamp, there being no other place, and great difficulty was experienced.
What line from this passage would be most applicable in an essay about the challenges of early commercial air travel?
