ABOUT
The story of George Bolt in New Zealand aviation.
George Bolt began as an apprentice aero-mechanic to Vivian and Leo Walsh in 1916 in Waitemata New Zealand and continued involvement with aviation until his death. Bolt became Chief Engineer of TEAL in 1944.
This is the story of George Bolt's pioneer days, from his first experiments with hot-air balloons and elastic-powered model aeroplanes, through his successful full-scale glider trials before World War I, and through the tight-lipped day of 1 September 1924 when Government representatives took over the Walshes' enterprise.
