‘Millions of Eyes Were Turned Skywards’: The Air League of the British Empire, Empire Air Day, and the Promotion of Air-mindedness, 1934–9
Twentieth Century British History This article investigates the Air League of the British Empire and its attempts to promote air-mindedness within British society in the late 1930s. It draws attention to the Air League’s construction of a distinctly militarized aerial theatre—in the form of Empire Air Day (EAD)—and highlights the extent to which the event was embedded in popular civic ritual. https://academic.oup.com/tcbh/articl...ra&login=false
