How we source these
Public holidays are taken from official government sources for each country and cover national holidays only. The United States, Canada and Australia all have significant state and provincial holidays that are not shown, and India’s system of state, optional and restricted holidays means only three days are observed nationwide. Where a government has not yet published a year, we say so rather than guess. Always check the official source for the country concerned rather than relying on this alone.
November 6th through history
A silver monoplane, flown in secret at Brooklands
On November 6th 1935 the prototype Hawker fighter K5083 lifted off the grass at Brooklands with the company’s chief test pilot, Flight Lieutenant George Bulman, at the controls. No press were told and photography was forbidden. Bulman is said to have come down and told the designer, Sydney Camm, that it was a piece of cake. The aircraft entered service as the Hurricane, and five summers later it was the workhorse of Fighter Command, more numerous in the Battle of Britain than the Spitfire and responsible for more of the German aircraft brought down.
Canadian troops took what was left of the village of Passchendaele on November 6th 1917, effectively ending the Third Battle of Ypres after three months of fighting over a few miles of flooded ground. The name has served since as shorthand for a particular kind of futility.
Adolphe Sax was born on November 6th 1814 at Dinant. He patented the saxophone in 1846, was bankrupted three times by lawsuits from rival instrument makers, and died poor. The instrument he could not make money from went on to define an entire century of music.
Sally Field won two Academy Awards within five years, having earlier played a nun who could fly. She arrived on November 6th 1946; Glenn Frey of the Eagles followed in 1948, the actor Ethan Hawke in 1970, and the actress Emma Stone, later an Oscar winner for La La Land, in 1988.
Born on November 6th: star sign, birthstone and birth flower
Sally Field and Emma Stone — both named above — share this star sign with everyone else born in the same window.
Star sign
Scorpio — a Water sign ruled by Mars (traditional) / Pluto (modern), symbolised by the Scorpion.
Birthstone
traditionally Topaz, or Topaz or Citrine in the modern list for November.
Birth flower
Chrysanthemum (primary), also Peony — most commonly cited sources agree on chrysanthemum as the main November flower.
None of this is settled fact in the way the history above is — zodiac dates, birthstones and birth flowers are conventions rather than laws, and different sources hedge them slightly differently. The birthstone is the most standardised of the three (set by the trade in 1912 and revised since); the birth flower is the least, resting on Victorian tradition rather than any governing body.

A small, themed starting point rather than a shopping list — topaz for the stone, Scorpio for the sign, and the sky itself on the day.
