Early air race programs online

Postby Anders » Wed Jul 03, 2013 7:37 am

Hi everybody,

The French website meetingaeriens.blog4ever.com is a gold-mine, where you can access programs from the 1909-1910 meetings of Port-Aviation (23 May), Reims (1909 and 1910), Doncaster, Tours, Lyon, Rouen, Circuit de l'Est, Baie de Seine and Bourges. Have a look!

Do you know of any other programs or similar old documents that are accessible online?

1909 Brescia meeting

Postby Anders » Wed Aug 07, 2013 12:19 pm

The 1909 Brescia meeting program was available at avia-it.com, but is still available at Internet Archive. It's a 10 Mb pdf file, so it takes a long time to load.
