The 1897 Quincy Airship Mystery
The unexplained flies high in this episode as we look at a large string of unknown aircraft that were visible across the United States in 1896 and 1897. We give an overview of the timeline and do a deep dive of the airship's appearance in the skies over Quincy Illinois in April of 1897. We take a look at the reports and try to figure out what was flying across the skies years before the first plane. Check out the episode blog here. Think we got something wrong?
