DM in 1909 ???? !!!! edit
How on earth could the affair have costed 3,000,000 DM when that currency did not come into existence until nearly 50 years after? If it's supposed to be a modern comparison, then it should of course be in Euros.

Don't know how early to start scheduling DYK hooks, but world first airline is pretty good. I'm trying to find world/US first airline passenger. Thanks, L3X1 ◊distænt write◊ 03:00, 23 September 2018 (UTC)
Compagnie générale transaérienne edit
Every source seems to list DELAG as the world's first airline. However, Compagnie générale transaérienne was founded in October 10, 1909, over a month before DELAG. Though, some sources mention DELAG's founding day as October 16 or October 1st. If last is correct, then it would precede CGT.--Mikoyan21 (talk) 14:19, 9 June 2019 (UTC)
