EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic photograph captures the jubilant moment after the successful completion of the first transatlantic flight by a US Navy NC4 seaplane. The image shows five of the crew members, who had flown the plane from Newfoundland to Lisbon, Portugal, and then on to Spain and Plymouth, UK. From left to right, we see Lieutenant Commander John H. Towers Talbot, Lieutenant Commander Albert C. Rodd, Chief Engineer Charles W. Hinton, Lieutenant Commander John P. Read, and Naval Secretary Josephus Daniels. The NC4 seaplane, a four-engine Flying Boat, took off from Newfoundland on May 25, 1919, and landed in Lisbon on May 31, marking the first transatlantic flight by a US military aircraft. After a brief stop in Lisbon, the plane continued on to Spain and then to Plymouth, UK, where it arrived on June 4. This groundbreaking achievement marked the beginning of regular transatlantic air travel and demonstrated the US Navy's technological prowess. The crew members are dressed in their US Navy uniforms, with Daniels, the Naval Secretary, wearing civilian attire. The NC4 seaplane, a marvel of engineering, is visible in the background, with its distinctive biplane wings and four engines. The crew's elated expressions and the backdrop of European cities speak to the significance of this moment in aviation history. This photograph is a testament to the courage, skill, and innovation of the US Navy crew who made this transatlantic flight possible. It is a reminder of the early days of aviation and the pivotal role that the US Navy played in shaping the future of air travel.
