Since I posted the "Jimmie Allen" aircraft advertising Richfield...

I might as well post an image of the 1st Plane to cross the Pacific... Non-stop. The Miss Veedol:





On October 5, 1931, Clyde Pangborn with co-pilot Hugh Herndon undertook a 41 hour flight from Sabishiro Beach, Misawa, Aomori Prefecture, Japan to the United States. The two pilots crash-landed the plane in the hills of East Wenatchee, Washington.
