John Alcock and Arthur Brown completed the first nonstop transatlantic flight on June 15, 1919, flying from Newfoundland to Ireland in 16 hours.
解説
Flying a modified Vickers Vimy bomber, Alcock and Brown crossed 3,040 km of open Atlantic in dangerous conditions including fog, snow, and engine icing. They landed in a bog near Clifden, Ireland. Charles Lindbergh's more famous solo crossing came eight years later in 1927. Alcock and Brown won a 10,000 pound prize offered by the Daily Mail newspaper.
