Chapter 4-"The Airmail Pilots' Strike of 1919" - a podcast by Air Line Pilots Association, International

The Airmail Pilots' Strike of 1919 was one of the earliest organized actions taken by pilots.

The roots of modern-day pilots' unions can be traced back to this important event in aviation history.
