ABOUT
Sir Charles Kingsford Smith (1897-1935) was one of the most celebrated public idols in history.
For a few years in the late 20s and early 30s Smith was a legend across the world for his brilliance as a pilot and his charismatic style among the pioneers of long-distance flying.
The first person to fly an aircraft across the Pacific from America to Australia (in 1928) he broke many solo flying records, and this brought him a status greater than any modern astronaut - a crowd of 300,000 greeted him in Sydney.
Illustrated with monochrome images.
