During the Golden Age of flight, planes were pushed beyond their limits, as pilots raced to be the first to cross oceans and continents. At home, out of work pilots gave rise to barnstormers and daredevils who thrilled crowds with their aerobatics. Read about such aviators and adventures as Charles Lindbergh, the MacRobertson Air Race, James Doolittle and speed records, and air mail.
