About this listen

 Episode 2 of Airplanes dives into aviation’s daring early decades, when the thrill of flying met the reality of risk. From fragile biplanes to roaring prop engines, pilots pushed their machines—and themselves—to the limit. We explore the barnstormers who turned flight into spectacle, the pioneers who tested the boundaries of altitude and speed, and the fatal crashes that forced engineers to confront the dangers of the sky. This episode reveals how every broken wing and fallen aircraft brought hard lessons, fueling innovations that transformed flight from a reckless dream into a global industry.
