Captain Wolfgang Von Gronau of Germany and three companions set their seaplane down at the Battery in New York after blazing a 4,670-mile trail across the Atlantic by way of the Faroe Islands, Iceland, Greenland and Nova Scotia, spending 47 hours in the air.

Von Gronau's 4,670-mile flight proved that airplanes were viable for traveling long distances. He later circumnavigated the globe in his Dornier-Wal seaplane, starting and ending in Sylt, Germany.
