This day in history...Dec 2

Quite a busy day today. Here are a few examples of what went on!

First of all we go way back to 1945 and the first flight of the Bristol 170 freighter.

1982 is the next stop on our history tour and the start of operations of the Cuban carrier AeroCaribbean.

We move into the noughties now, but this time noting an airline restarting operations. East African in 2002.

2006 is our final visit for today with South African Express rebranding as SA Express.
