The Times (of Malta), daily carries a column, 50 Years Ago, and 100 Years Ago, briefly describing events of importance at the time. I am reproducing some of those columns that are aviation/military related. Note the written English of the time, and presentation.

These have been grouped under the headings of Accidents, Aviation (Civil & Military), Misc, Naval and Personnel (Civil & Military), each group being listed in chronological order.

Date in blue text is a recent update, with a link to each page being given below.
