'First flight from Rome to Buenos Aires.' After stops at Casablanca and Thiès near Dakar, pilots Lombardi and Mazzotti strayed from the route to Natal and hit rocks while landing on a beach near Fortaleza, putting an end to the flight. Mail was carried and this information was gathered from philatelic websites. Photo from: Nationaal Archief (Netherlands)
