#OTD 1935: Humorist #WillRogers and aviation pioneer #WileyPost were killed in a plane crash near Point Barrow, Alaska. The aircraft the men were using combined a fuselage mated with wings from a different model aircraft. As Post was not an aeronautical engineer, the combination made the craft dangerously nose-heavy. #AviationHistory
Il #22luglio 1933 l'aviatore USA #WileyPost, a bordo del suo aeroplano Lockheed Vega, è il primo uomo a fare in solitaria un volo di circumnavigazione del globo terrestre, percorrendo 25.000 km in poco più di 7 giorni e 18 ore. Uno degli aeroporti di Oklahoma porta il suo nome.
#NationalAviationWeek is the perfect time to come and visit the Woolaroc airplane and the other interesting pieces in the aviation exhibit. This headgear was worn by pilot Wiley Post on his last solo flight around the world!

Il #15agosto 1935 moriva #WileyPost. Pioniere dell'aviazione che stabilì molti record. Tra il 15 e il 22/7/1933, nonostante fosse privo di un occhio, completò il primo giro del mondo in solitaria (15.596 miglia) sul monomotore Lockheed Vega 5B Winnie Mae, in 7 gg. 18 h e 49'.
Once a flying circus performer, aviator #WileyPost had bigger plans as he & his navigator took off from New York OTD in 1931 in their single-engine plane, hoping to beat a 21-day circumnavigation flight record. Post crushed the record when he flew around the world in just 8 days.

@idtbh1 I find it disturbing that both #WillRogers and #WileyPost have airports named after them in #Oklahoma. They both died in the same #airplanecrash (Post, who had only one eye, was flying).

Today in 1934, Wiley Post reached the stratosphere in his Lockheed Vega "Winnie Mae." The aircraft didn't have a pressurized cabin, so he wore a pressure suit and helmet designed for him by the B.F. Goodrich Company, which is in our collection.

On this day in 1933, aviator #WileyPost completed the 1st solo around the world flight. It only took 7 days, 18 hours & 49 minutes to go 24,901 miles. Today, @SouthwestAir and @HawaiianAir can get you to Hawaii (2402 miles) in a little over 5 hours. We think that’s progress.
