In his AvWeb piece on scud-running, Rick Durden mentions that the mail pilots in the 1920's just kept flying lower until they could see the ground, even if that meant skimming the tree-tops: http://www.avweb.com/news/columns/182679-1.html By the 1930's, I imagine, some of them had gyroscopic instruments.
