"Who was the first to fly over the Atlantic ocean none stop" - another of Monty's tricky questions - note "over" not "across." Charles Lindbergh's was the first non-stop solo flight but not the first or even second non-stop flights, however. The first non-stop flight between islands on different sides of the Atlantic was on June 14-15, 1919. by Capt. John Alcock and Lieut. A.W. Brown of the United Kingdom in Vickers Vimy bomber, 1,960 nautical miles (3,630 km), from St. John's, Newfoundland to Clifden, Ireland, in 16 hours, 12 minutes. (On July 1919. Major George Herbert Scott of the Royal Air Force with his crew and passengers flies from East Fortune, Scotland to Mineola, Long Island in an airship R34, covering a distance of about 3,000 statute miles (4,800 km) in about four and a half days, the first East-West transatlantic flight, then he made a return trip to England.) The first non-stop flight from the continental landmasses was on October 1924, when the Zeppelin airship ZR-3 (LZ-126) flew from Germany to New Jersey with a crew commanded by Dr. Hugo Eckener, covering a distance of about 4,000 statute miles (6,400 km). This was the first nonstop aircraft flight between the European and American mainlands.
Hey Cottman, aft her your study, i sure i loose my weekend, but question 2 real not the grand mammy from Hedda ?
The questions are ambiquous
It can refer to the AGE of the reign or the AGE of the Monarch
Both answers Cottamann (and mine) are correct given interpretation of the English language
I am sure balziel will attest to this
If I win please donate the equivalent cash amount to Dr Philippe and email the receipt to Hedda - just for transparancy of donations
