Did you know that the modern airport owes its existence to the United States Post Office? Steam-powered the 19th century, but Gasoline and the Internal Combustion engine powered the 20th.  This was especially true in the transportation industries. But unlike other industries, these depended on government developed and maintained infrastructure, which is where the Post Office and the Military come into play. In this podcast, I will also talk about the early commercial airlines (both domestic and international flights) starting in the 19-teens. The podcast addresses much more about the growth of the transportation industry, so listen to the podcast and comment on things about this era and these industries you want to know more about in Shotguns & Sugar Instagram Feed or Facebook.
