Spectrum 282 - Smithie Has Made It. A recreation of Kingsford-Smith's first trans-Tasman flight in his tri-engined Fokker monoplane, "Southern Cross".
Drawn from eye-witness accounts and archival sound recordings, the
programme marks the 50th anniversary of the famous crossing from Sydney to Wellington in 1928.
