Rare and Secret Order of The Double Sunrise
- Rare and Secret Order of The Double Sunrise
The "Rare and Secret Order of The Double Sunrise" was an illustrated certificate given to passengers aboard the flying boats of the Australia-England air link to attest they have been airborne for more than 24 hours. [ Frank Stanley Stuart, Henri Charles Biard. "Modern Air Transport." J. Long Ltd. 1946, page 95.]
In 1943, the Australia-England air link was re-established under a new plan because it had been cut by advancing Japanese forces. The plan called for flights between Swan River, Perth, and Koggala Lake, in southern Ceylon (now Sri Lanka).
