How
do I find Cheap
flights to Chennai?
It was on this day that J.R.D. Tata,
the father of Civil Aviation in India and founder
of Air India, took off from Drigh
Road Airport, Karachi, in a tiny, light single-engined
de Havilland Puss Moth on his flight to Mumbai via
Ahmedabad.
He landed with his valuable load of mail on a grass
strip at Juhu. At Mumbai, Neville Vintcent, a former
RAF pilot who had come to India from Britain three
years previous on a barn storming tour, during which
he had surveyed a number of likely air routes, took
over from J.R.D.Tata and flew the Puss Moth to Chennai
via Bellary.
