22 July 1914

Commencing July 22, 1914, the Great Yorkshire Show Air Line operated scheduled hourly return flights between Bradford and Leeds during the annual Great Yorkshire Show, making it the world's second winged airline after the Tampa-St. Petersburg Airboat Line. It used a Blackburn Type I monoplane piloted by Harold Blackburn. Operations ceased with the closing of the show on the 24th.
