The Hunter Brothers' Flight Around the World

1930

The year is 1930.

The Hunter brothers test the engine during their 23-day flight without landing.

One interesting fact about the Hunter Brothers flight is that they were the first aviators to fly around the world without landing or refueling.

For 23 days, they advanced through the air, using only their own vehicles and aircraft, and successfully returned to their starting point.
