ATLANTIC ROUTES OF THE AMERICAN AIRMEN. “Within a fortnight two American pilots, two American-made planes, and one American passenger crossed the Atlantic on the most spectacular non-stop flight so far written in aviation history," wrote Mr F. Trubee Davison, Assistant Secretary of War. Figures compiled by the United States Geological Survey show that Chamberlin and Levine travelled 3,905 miles, thus holding the world's record for distance flown in one flight, against Lindbergh, who covered 3,610 miles. The flight of Chamberlin and Levine ended at Eisleben, where they were forced down by lack of gas. At Klinge they broke a propeller, and were therefore unable to complete their flight to Berlin until Tuesday, June 7.
