Ronald Edward George (REG) Davies is probably someone you may not have heard about.
Davies died in England nine years ago at age 90.
Simply said, REG Davies was and today remains the greatest and most prolific airline historian that ever lived anywhere in the world.
His legacy to aviation, captured in 25 books and other social efforts, are as pioneering and important in scope as many of the subjects he wrote about including Lindbergh, Earhart, Berlin Airlift and almost every major airline in the world, past and present. His service via his immense output of books and research and work as the very first Curator of Air Transport at the National Air & Space Museum (NASM) in Washington, D.C. is detailed and enormous.
