Pilot Discovery

Your task is to find out who I am and more details about me and my famous flight. Your research findings should include the following:

• my name
• my birthplace (city, state, country)
• the year I was born
• my nickname
• what type of airplane I flew
• what year I took my famous flight
• which ocean I flew over
• what the weather conditions were like during my flight
• why my flight is important in history
