    On 16th November 1920 a small airline was established named Queensland and Northern Territory Aerial Service ( QANTAS ). The early founders and staff of this company had a vision for the airline to service and connect the remote and isolated parts of the Outback-little did they imagine how the airline would actually TAKE OFF !!!!!
