On February 18, 1911, French pilot Henri Pequet carried the first official mail flown by aeroplane. The flight occurred in what is now India, with over 6,000 cards and letter going from Allahabad to Naini, a 10km trip.
Ninety nine years to the day later, a modern mail starts flowing with the first release by Wikileaks of documents disclosed by the soldier now known as Chelsea Manning.
