The operating experience of European air lines, covering a period of over five years, constitutes infor- mation of great value in the study of air transportation; but conditions in Europe have been so abnormal inthe years since the war and the temper and characteristics of the European peo- pies have affected the reuits so importantly that it is neces- sary to proceed with care in applying the data elsewhere.

  • Aéropostale and Air France—A Decade of South Atlantic Airmail
    Aéropostale and Air France—A Decade of South Atlantic Airmail by Daniel V. Gribbin Member: APS, AAMS, BAMS 126 Key Colony Ct., Daytona Beach, FL 32118 [email protected] 1 AN OVERVIEW On September 1, 1939, the German invasion of Poland effectively ended a remarkable period of almost three years during which two European airlines cooperated to offer twice- weekly transatlantic airmail service between Europe and South America. Germany’s flagship airline Deutsche Lufthansa took the lead in 1934 by establishing dependable bi-weekly, all-air service, with weekly service soon to follow. The French effort to achieve such consistency took considerably longer. My purpose here is to describe the gradual progress that the French made, during that decade of the 1930s, in establishing weekly airmail service to South America, and also to discuss the formidable obstacles, some of them self-imposed, that they encountered, beginning in 1928 with the inaugural service linking Paris and Buenos Aires. A DAZZLING FIRST STEP The first flight to carry official air mail across the South Atlantic left St. Louis, near Dakar, Senegal, on May 12, 1930. Flying for Aéropostale, Jean Mermoz and his crew of two (co-pilot Jean Dabry and radioman Léopold Gimié) took 21 hours to traverse the 3200 km to Natal, in northern Brazil, in a single-engine floatplane, the Latécoère 28 (figure 1).1 Mail bags were offloaded at Natal and loaded onto a Latécoère 25 which Raymond Vanier flew down the coast to Rio de Janeiro.2 Figure 2 shows a registered cover cancelled on May 10 in Paris and addressed to the radioman Gimié.
