Send us a message or question! In this episode of Never Mind the Dambusters, we join historian Dr. Sarah-Louise Miller to explore her research on WWII operations, including Operation Manna and Operation Exodus in the Spring and early summer of 1945. We examine the emotional impact of war stories, the humanitarian efforts of the RAF, and the experiences of POWs returning home. As we navigate the challenges of writing about such sensitive topics, we reflect on the power of personal stories in shaping our understanding of history. Jane relates a tragic story about Operation Sketch (the transportation home of troops from India and the Far East) in December 1945. Sarah shares her insights with us and offers a glimpse into her upcoming projects, including her research on the Pacific War in Hawaii, and the often-overlooked voices of history.You can read more about Sarah's work here.You can find her on X/twitter here.Support the showPlease subscribe to Never Mind The Dambusters wherever you get your podcasts.

We'd love your feedback! What resonated for you in this episode? What do you want more of?One of the most devastating consequences of coercive control and domestic abuse is the stripping away of the victim's identity and sense of self.The emotional and psychological abuse leads victims to feel incapable of doing even small tasks that may once have felt easy, let alone the belief that one can follow their dreams.What if finding a way to take that first step towards your dreams could catapult your healing?On this episode of The Rising Beyond Podcast, I talk with Lola REid Allin on how following her dreams to become a pilot allowed her to escape her abusive marriage in a time when it was shocking for a woman to leave her husband. In this episode we also discuss the harmful culture in the male dominated profession of aviation and what leads to this harassment and “boys club” culture.Lola shares her reason for writing her memoir, HIGHWAY to the SKY: An Aviator's Journey. It is a way that she can bring light to the many women's issues that prevent women from living out their dreams.About Lola: Lola Reid Allin is a survivor, former Airline Transport Pilot, pilot examiner, and the first female flight instructor at two flight schools (BC & ON), and the first woman to fly the Twin Otter (DHC6/300) for a scheduled air service, commemorated on the Wall of Women in Aviation History at the Bush Plane Museum in Sault Ste Marie.In addition, she is a SCUBA Dive Master, and an award-winning author and photographer whose work has appeared in many notable local, national, and international publications, including National Post, Globe & Mail, Toronto Star, National Geographic, Santa Fe Centre for Photography, Verge Magazine, & Grapevine Magazine. To promote the role of women in aviation and to encourage other females to consider aviation careers, Lola is a speaker with the Northern Lights Aero Foundation & the Eastern Ontario 99s Education & Outreach Committee. In 2022, she and Robin Hadfield, the International 99s President, created the New Track Scholarship, an annual award for female pilots.Connect with Lola: https://www.lolareidallin.com/https://www.facebook.com/Lola.Reid.Allin.Pilot/https://www.instagram.com/lola.reid.allin/https://www.linkedin.Please leave us a review!

The Battle of Britain was one of the hardest fought in the Second World War. In "Battle of Britain: Canadian Airmen in Their Finest Hour," historian Ted Barris details how Canadian flyers were vital in the battle and helped win it alongside their British counterparts.

The P-47 Thunderbolt is considered one of the most important fighter-bombers used by Allied Forces in World War II. Thunderbolts flew over half a million missions and are renowned by pilots for their durability and reliability. Over one-third of all Thunderbolts were built at the Republic Aviation plant in Evansville. Notably, nearly half of the plant's employees were women. Known as “Raiderettes,” they worked alongside male workers and boasted a variety of jobs including on the assembly lines, in the administrative offices, and even as test pilots. Many of the women were “two-job workers,” balancing 14-hour shifts at Republic with raising children while their partners fought overseas. Our new blog post examines the lived experiences of the Raiderettes and how they navigated being women workers in a “man's” world, pushing against and often breaking the glass ceiling in the process. This episode was written by Kelsey Green, produced by Jill Weiss Simins, and performed by Justin Clark.

Send us a Text Message.Join guest hosts Jacque Boyd, Jenny Beatty, and me as we discuss this out-of-print treasure, Neta Snook Southern's I Taught Amelia to Fly. Through Neta's own aviation journey, we get a very special lens into the experiences of aspiring pilots in the U.S. as they pursued their dreams during and after WWI. Her childhood stories emphasize the importance of exposing our girls to science and mechanics as that exposure imbued her with the skills and confidence to not only hold her own in a male dominate world, but endeared her to her peers. Neta also offers us a new and intimate perspective of iconic Amelia Earhart during her formative years as a pilot in training. Since the book is difficult to find, we take you through all of the wonderful and surprising highlights.

The Tunica-Biloxi Tribe of Marksville is gearing up for their third annual Louisiana Rural and Economic Development Summit in Marksville, Louisiana. At this summer's LaRuE summit, industry leaders, business professionals, and experts in agriculture and technology will gather to discuss the challenges facing rural communities – with the goal of building more partnerships between agencies and Native American tribes.Chairman of the Tunica-Biloxi Tribe Marshall Pierite joins us for more on this summit and what he hopes it can accomplish.Louisiana is the country's second largest seafood producer, but its commercial fishermen are, on average, among the oldest in the country, as tough conditions are turning away younger generations.Reporter for Axios New Orleans Chelsea Brasted tells us how this trend is raising concerns for the industry and consumers. Louisiana has a connection to aviation history that many don't know. The first helicopter was invented in 1922 by a man from Alexandria named Leo Ortego. More than 100 years later, his niece Mariane Elizabeth Nevill, published the book, “Leo's War,” that serves as a fictionalized account of her uncle's life based on the stories she heard about him while growing up. She joins us to discuss this book and how she hopes it can celebrate the state's aviation history.___Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Karen Henderson. Our managing producer is Alana Schrieber. Matt Bloom and Aubry Procell are assistant producers.

On Tuesday morning, December 5, 1978, 22 people were rescued off the side of a high Colorado mountain in the southern regions of the Rocky Mountains. They had survived the frigid night at an altitude above 10,000 feet (over 3,000 meters). This was in the midst of a snowstorm, with temperatures well below freezing and winds howling above 30 miles per hour (that's nearly 50 kilometers per hour). There was only minimal shelter. Some reports estimated the snow to be 8 feet deep and wind chill temperatures approaching 50 below zero. That they survived the brutal weather conditions is remarkable, but that they had also survived the reason for being stranded on the mountain – a plane crash – is even more remarkable. What follows is the story of that winter survival miracle, and the crash of Rocky Mountain Airways Flight 217.

Send us a Text Message.Welcome to the new ‘Literary Aviatrix Classics' series, where I discuss books written by and about our aviatrix pioneers with my venerable co-hosts, Dr. Jacque Boyd and Captain Jenny Beatty. In this interview, we get to know Jacque and Jenny, and we announce the subject of our first ‘Classics' discussion. Dr. Jacque Boyd is an educator and a general aviation pilot. She has a B.A. in Education, Psychology, and Special Education. In 1979 she was awarded the Amelia Earhart Memorial Scholarship from the Ninety-Nines for her M.Ed. in Aerospace Education. She also holds a PhD in Curriculum Development and Supervision. Her dissertation was a study of math and science education.Jacque's writing expertise covers several magazine columns, including the Current Issues and Tools for Schools column for Aviation for Women. She also writes extensively for The Ninety-Nines Magazine with the latest contribution being book reviews. She currently does book reviews for several publications and has experienced the fun of ghostwriting.Jacque is a self-admitted book-a-holic with well over 1000 volumes. The majority of the books are aviation-related and most about women's flight. She also has all her grandfather's education books from when he was a teacher in Kentucky in the late 1800s. Captain Jenny Beatty is a longtime airline pilot, author, and advocate for women and others underrepresented in aviation.Jenny's interest in aviation's early days stems from being in one of the few families to have three generations of women pilots. Both of her maternal grandparents learned to fly in 1930, and their daughter, Jenny's mother, earned her pilot's license in 1945. Following them into the air in 1981, Jenny became a flight instructor, airline pilot, check airman, and flight operations manager, and is rated to fly the B737, B747, B777, B787, DC-9, seaplanes, and gliders. In this portrait, Jenny is wearing her grandmother's flying jacket. To join the Literary Aviatrix Classics conversation, Jenny draws from her collection of over 350 books and magazines by and about women and other underrepresented pilots all over the world, including rare early first editions. She is a popular writer and public speaker on historical and contemporary pilot career topics.

Many of you might remember a guest we had back in season six by the name of John “Lucky” Luckadoo, the last surviving original pilot from the 100th Bomb group. As a B-17 Bomber Pilot, he flew twenty five missions out of England during WWII. When we spoke with Lucky, he was with author, Kevin Maurer who told his story in a book called, “Damn Lucky, One Man's Courage During the Bloodiest Military Campaign in Aviation History”. Almost two years have passed since that episode aired and we have continued to stay in touch with Lucky. In February of this year, (2024) I was able speak with Lucky who, at the time, was three weeks shy of his 102nd birthday! In this episode of Your History Your Story, I'll be sharing my conversation with Lucky about the recent Apple TV series “Masters of the Air”, which tells the story of the 100th Bomb Group, known as the “Bloody Hundredth”. Although, when we spoke, all the episodes had not yet aired, I was able to get Lucky's thoughts on what he had seen so far and how it compared to what really happened. After all, Lucky was there...

On the evening of February 12, 2009, Colgan Air Flight 3407 was on final approach to Runway 23 at the Buffalo Niagara International Airport in Buffalo, New York. It was dark, it was snowing, it was windy and the pilots had noted the accumulation of ice on the wings and windshield of the 78-seat regional airliner. Still, the pilots were not under undue stress as the cockpit voice recorders indicated a casual, unhurried atmosphere, there was even some unrelated chit-chat on the flight deck. Then, just moments before landing, air traffic controllers noticed the plane was no longer on their radar screens. Flight 3407 was down for reasons unknown.In the post-crash investigation, the most likely cause of the crash – the weather (including the snow, the wind and the ice) was quickly dismissed. If not the weather, then what happened to Colgan Air Flight 3407 that caused it to fall out of the night sky and claim the lives of all on board and one on the ground?
In 1971 the Ford Pinto was released into the world and soon earned a reputation for being a car that explodes. Despite having that knowledge, the smart guys at Advanced Vehicle Engineers decided to attach a Pinto to a plane to create a flying car. They created the AVE Mizar which took flight in 1973. Also in this episode we'll be covering inventors who were killed by their own inventions and comedians who died while performing.Our sponsor for this episode is Magic Mind!

On final approach to Havana's José Martí International Airport in 1977, the Aeroflot Ilyushin IL-62M with 69 people on board, descended below the clouds and the pilot immediately was confronted with power lines between the plane and the runway – and the runway was close. The pilot attempted to pull the nose up to avoid the powerlines, but the emergency maneuver was not enough – the plane clipped the power lines and the steel-reinforced cables severed the vertical stabilizer from the rest of the plane. Rendered uncontrollable, the plane pitched sharply down and to the right, impacting the ground within seconds of contact with the power lines. The plane burst into flames, and though the rear of the fuselage was relatively intact, there were only two survivors. What, exactly, happened on this day, some 46 years ago? An airliner from one of the world's largest airlines clipping powerlines? A rookie mistake like this seems impossible. How did – how could – this happen? There aren't many details, but the Radar Contact Lost team examines the details and tries to fill in the blanks.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for Nov 7th Publish Date: Nov 6th Commercial: Henssler :15 From the Henssler Financial Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast. Today is Saturday, November 7th and Happy Birthday to MLB HOF Jim Kaat. ***JIM KAAT – 1965 WS Gm.5 Goes the Distance*** I'm Dan Radcliffe and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Credit Union of Georgia Cobb gives thanks to veterans Smyrna's 'Her-story' Outlined in Lecture 'We can't get caught up in the noise,' Cupid says at fundraiser All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe! BREAK: CU of GA STORY 1: Cobb gives thanks to veterans East Cobb Park hosted the "Give Thanks" veteran appreciation celebration, organized by United Military Care and the Aviation History and Technology Center. The event aimed to foster appreciation for veterans from various conflicts and educate younger community members about the importance of Veterans Day. Veterans from Vietnam, Desert Storm, and the War on Terror in Afghanistan and Iraq were present. Activities included live music, children's booklets about the military, scavenger hunts, and bounce houses designed like an aircraft carrier and a tank. An F-4 Phantom jet fighter cockpit simulator provided by the Aviation History and Technology Center allowed visitors to experience flying an aircraft using instruments. STORY 2: Smyrna's 'Her-story' Outlined in Lecture Local historians in Smyrna, Georgia, highlighted the often-overlooked contributions of women in the city's history. Women in the 19th and 20th centuries in Smyrna faced the "separate spheres philosophy," which limited their roles in society. Despite these constraints, women played significant roles in civic, educational, and philanthropic life. The historians shared stories of notable women, such as civic activist Lena Mae Green, Smyrna's first female mayor Lorena Pace Pruitt, and civil rights proponent Fanny Williams. A significant challenge in documenting women's contributions is the lack of recorded information about them, especially Black women. The event aimed to celebrate these women's stories and contributions to the community. STORY 3: 'We can't get caught up in the noise,' Cupid says at fundraiser A campaign fundraiser for Lisa Cupid, the Chair of the Cobb County Board of Commissioners, was hosted by Marietta attorney Justin O'Dell. The event aimed to garner support for Cupid's re-election campaign, scheduled for a year later. With Cobb County trending Democratic in recent years, Cupid, a Democrat, is in a favorable position. However, she already faces a Republican challenger, realtor Kay Morgan. Political scientist Kerwin Swint noted that Republican opponents would need to focus on powerful issues, raise significant funds, and mobilize their base effectively to challenge Cupid. Cupid's tenure as chair has seen her prioritize governance for the entire county, with a strong credit rating and sound management. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info. We'll be right back Break: ESOG – ELON – DAYCO STORY 4: Cobb Officials Discuss Tackling Opioid Crisis Cobb County has seen 145 fatal drug overdoses since October 2022, attributed to the presence of fentanyl in various drugs, leading to the creation of dangerous "designer drugs." Fentanyl is being mixed with substances like marijuana and pressed pills to enhance the high, but it can have fatal consequences. Experts warn that even small amounts of fentanyl can be deadly, particularly for those not accustomed to opiates. A significant concern is the combination of fentanyl with stimulants like meth. The county is working on harm reduction initiatives, including the distribution of Dispose RX and the introduction of CARES teams, which provide support and naloxone to individuals struggling with addiction. STORY 5: Austell Hopes to 'Breathe New Life' Into Former Mill The city of Austell is planning to redevelop the Threadmill Complex, a former mill site owned by the city, into a mixed-use development featuring housing, shops, restaurants, park space, and offices. Austell is seeking proposals from developers for the site, with a focus on creating a live, work, and play environment, including housing options that cater to young professionals, families, and seniors. The city hopes that the redevelopment will help address the issue of food deserts in the area and stimulate economic activity, making the complex a "self-sustaining economic engine" that can attract businesses such as grocery stores. The city aims to turn the complex into a "vibrant, multifunctional community hub." We'll be back in a moment Break: DRAKE – INGLES 8 STORY 6: Apple iPhone-maker Foxconn sees solid holiday demand despite October sales dip Apple's shares showed only a slight increase in pre-market trading following Foxconn's announcement that it would stick to its full-year forecasts despite a surprise dip in October sales. Foxconn, a major player in Apple's supply chain, saw a 4.6% drop in October revenues. However, it is anticipating a boost in demand from upcoming events like "Singles Day" in China and Black Friday in the U.S. Apple had recently released a holiday revenue forecast that fell short of Wall Street expectations, and its latest quarterly earnings showed a decline in Mac, iPad, and Apple Watch sales, although iPhone sales were up. The weaker U.S. dollar negatively impacted Apple's China sales. STORY 7: Cobb Drug Treatment Court Celebrates 20 Years of Changing Lives Cobb County's Drug Treatment Court celebrated its 20th anniversary with a message that it is an effective program that helps people overcome substance use disorders rather than throw them away. The court provides an 18 to 24-month drug treatment option as an alternative to incarceration. To graduate, participants must achieve a 90-day clean screen, meet treatment and case management requirements, give back through community service, secure housing, and gainful employment. The program has helped numerous individuals overcome addiction and restore their lives, as it focuses on health, family, and relationship restoration. The 20-year anniversary event highlighted the court's positive impact. Break: Henssler :60 Signoff- Thanks again for hanging out with us on today's Marietta Daily Journal podcast.

At just before 2 o'clock in the afternoon on Saturday, March 5, 1966, British Overseas Airways Corporation Flight 911, took off from Tokyo's Haneda International Airport. Bound for Hong Kong, the Boeing 707 broke apart in mid-air, just 15 minutes after departure. The crash left no survivors. The weather conditions were not an issue – at least, nothing obvious: there were no thunderstorms, no typhoons, there was no rain or snow. In fact, it was a sunny, clear, cloud-free day. It was so nice that the crew had requested a clearance so that they could stray from their intended route to Hong Kong, so that the captain could give the passengers a glorious view of the snow-capped and iconic Mt. Fuji. It was while viewing Mt. Fuji in this “sightseeing mode,” that Flight 911 met its demise.What happened to Flight 911? What caused the mid-air break-up? Was it a bomb? Did the plane strike the mountainside? Was it a mechanical failure of some kind? Was the plane unsafe? Had the crew made a mistake? Or, despite the sunny skies, was the weather to blame. In this episode, the Radar Contact Lost team will examine what happened. We'll look at the airplane, the pilot, the airline and Mt. Fuji itself; we'll also take a dive into the phenomenon known as Clear Air Turbulence - not only what it is, but how, why and where it occurs and why, on this day over Japan, BOAC Flight 911 was ripped apart in midair.

I'm Keith Ippolito, representing the BG Ad Group, and we're excited to have you join us for this latest episode. Our show's lineup is brought to you by Credit Union of Georgia. In today's episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with Brad Hawkins, the project coordinator at the Aviation History & Technology Center. My fascination with Cobb's aviation history began after reading a recent article in the MDJ featuring local historian Bill Marchione, shedding light on aviation's profound impact on Smyrna and Cobb County's growth. And guess what? Bill will be joining us next week! Brad and I delved into the legacy of Charles M. Dobbins, the local war hero behind Dobbins Air Force Base's name, as well as the pivotal role played by James Carmichael, one of Lockheed's first plant managers. We also explored how the aviation industry intersected with the history of segregation in the South. So, stay tuned for an enlightening episode of Cobb Life, where we uncover the diverse stories and experiences within our vibrant community. BREAK: ESOG –– ELON – CU of GA Welcome back to Cobb Life. In this segment, we dive into Brad's background and explore the driving force behind his profound passion for aviation. You'll also learn about the pivotal moment when Bell Aviation and the construction of the Bell Bomber plant initially arrived in Cobb County. Later on, we'll unravel the significant events surrounding Lockheed's relocation of its plant to the area in 1951. And now, let's hear from our guest, Brad Hawkins: ***HAWKINS 1*** That concludes the first segment of Cobb Life. On the other side of this break, we will hear part two of my conversation with Brad. We'll be right back. BREAK: DAYCO – INGLES 2 – POWERS Welcome back to Cobb Life! In this segment, Brad and I delve into the critical role the aviation industry played in the process of desegregation. We'll also explore Cobb County's remarkable transformation from an agricultural society to a vibrant suburban community. Additionally, we'll uncover some lesser-known facts about Charles M.

On March 8th, 2014, 227 passengers boarded Malaysia Airlines Flight 370, taking off from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia at 12:41 a.m., destined to arrive in Beijing, China at 6:30 a.m. Not only did the flight never land in Beijing, it never made it even close. It turned around and disappeared several thousand miles away over the Indian Ocean and has never been found. What happened? Today we'll go over the details of who was on the flight, how the investigation of the disappearance was handled, and look into numerous theories and conspiracies regarding what happened to a plane full of 239 passengers and crew. We'll also cover the disappearances of several other flights that have vanished over the years. And I'll talk a lot about Dick Quest's dick quest...Bad Magic Charity of the Month: Donating a TBD amount to the Hill Country Humane Society this month.
