The first airplane flight across the Atlantic Ocean

May 22, 1927, is a date I still remember. It was a hot, sunny day and we were planting corn on our farm in Leicester. Suddenly we heard a faint celebration commotion from the direction of Worcester - whistles, bells, etc. My older brother listened for a moment and then exclaimed “Lindbergh!” Lucky Lindy, flying alone, had made it from New York to Paris. And for years I believed that he had been the first man to fly a plane across the Atlantic.
