The famous Munich Meeting of September 1938 between Adolf Hitler and Neville Chamberlain. The first conference where the leaders arrived by air, making Neville Chamerlain the first British Prime Minister to travel in plane. The Munich Meeting was perhaps the first meeting of it’s time which was directly attended by Head of States instead of diplomats

As a student, I always wondered if the world would have been very different today, if air travel was not an option in 1938? Air Travel changed the face of international relations, it revolutionised diplomacy. If any of you are looking to do a Politics/History/International Affairs dissertation, this is a very interesting topic to look at.

That would be interesting analysis.
