speed in 1935


At the time 250 km/h was faster than trains could go; nowadays of course, trains are faster than that.  Sabena was the national airline of Belgium with its base at Brussels, from 1923 to 2001 when it went bankrupt. Sabena's mainstay pre-WW2 airliner used in Europe was the successful Junkers Ju-52/3m. The airline's pre-war routes covered almost 6,000 km within Europe.
