The final film for Ken G. Hall, notable for the appearance of Prime Minister Billy Hughes as himself and also for the recreated footage of Smithy's flight with his actual plane, The Southern Cross. The film is also Bud Tingwell's first, and he appears briefly in the opening scene as a WWII air traffic controller. |
