Flying The Atlantic During The 30's And 40's

[Wild Bill]

For what it is worth, as a young middle level executive, my father worked in Chile in the late 1920s for a German exporting company, Hartmann and Sons, and flew several times as a passenger over the Andes to Argentina and back when that was an unbelievable, even harrowing, experience. I believe he flew in a Ford Trimotor, later copied as the WW II German transport, JU 52/53M.
