On 16 November 1920 Queensland and Northern Territory Aerial Services Ltd was formed by three men who could see the great benefits that aviation would bring to the people of western Queensland. The airline they established would eventually connect Australia with the world. A fourth man, Arthur Baird established the reputation for engineering excellence that Qantas has never lost.
Sir Hudson Fysh KBE DFC (1895-1974)


Paul McGinness DFC DCM (1896-1952)

Sir Fergus McMaster (1879-1950)


W Arthur Baird MSM (1889-1954)

and Congratulations to Red Roo (on behalf of all staff) but I hope you weren't there in 1920!

Yes, Happy Birthday Qantas (a bit late I know).

Also congrats to Qantas captain Laurie Shears... 45 years in the coughpit is a awesome achievement!
 
Thanks for your kind words. :)

We're celebrating today with the unveiling of #RetroRoo () and QantasLink touching down at Wellcamp Airport ().


Great to see direct flights to Toowoomba from Sydney now! Big thank you to the Wagner Brothers and all those involved in making this a success! Looks like a great airport from what i could see from the road and their long range view in putting in the full length runway is a real plus. All the best with the flights Qantas we re glad you signed the deal!:)
