Getting Swiss
Airmail off the Ground 1913-1923
|
American Air Mail
Society (AAMS)
Switzerland followed a
different path toward sustainable airmail service than other
countries. In 1913,
carrying covers by plane helped raise consciousness and raised money
toward establishment of a Swiss air force.
Then in 1919 service was attempted, flown by the Swiss air
force. But that was not
a viable, cost-effective service.
Finally in 1923, sustainable airmail service was established.
