100 years today the flying Smith brothers of South Australia won
the Great Air Race in 1919 - the first to fly from Great Britain To Australia.
Tucked away in a quiet area of Adelaide Airport sits a forgotten but amazing
piece of Australian history - a century-old plane known as a Vickers Vimy. Made
of little more than canvas and wood, this little biplane and two Adelaide
brothers made a record-breaking flight in 1919 but, as Tyson Mayr
learns, a series of unfortunate events meant the story got lost in time.
