In 1943 Qantas flew top secret flights from Perth to Sri Lanka to reconnect Britain to Australia. The flights were under constant threat from the Japanese and would fly for up to 32 hours non-stop. The crew and their 3 passengers would see two sunrises on their flights giving them the name of the Double Sunrise Flights. This documentary interviews the last remaining pilot from the Double Sunrise Flights, 93 year old Rex Senior. Rex recalls his times spent on the flights and how the crews were never recognised for what they contributed to Australia’s history. Narrated by John McNeill (Underbelly - The Golden Mile) and directed by Daniel Bunker.
