Deadly love triangle: the downfall of Aviation's Golden couple (part 1 of 3)
Manage episode 407408893 series 3559881
In the early morning of 21 April 1932, a gunshot rings out in a bungalow in the small Florida town of Coral Gables. The victim is a young man, one Haden Clarke and he appears to have committed suicide: he has left behind two letters for his housemates, aviation pioneers Jessie Chubbie Miller and Captain Bill Lancaster. But when the police find the diaries of Haden's roommate, Captain Bill, these shed a very different light on the case.
The trial of captain Bill Lancaster would make history because of its scandalous details and highly dubious forensic science. it has adultery, a love triangle, crashing planes, human smuggling and the breakneck feats of the largely forgotten one of history's greatest female aviation pioneers.
