Air Mail Act of 1925

The Air Mail Act of 1925 was a U.S. law that regulated and promoted the development of commercial aviation and air mail services. It aimed to improve the efficiency and safety of mail delivery by air and encouraged private airlines to participate in carrying mail. The act also led to the government awarding contracts to airlines, which helped establish a more organized and competitive aviation industry. Overall, it played a key role in advancing U.S. civil aviation and reducing reliance on government-operated services.
