Bellancas made amazing long-distance flights. Cape Cod flew 8066 km (5012 miles) non-stop from New York to Istanbul in July 1931, piloted by Russell Boardman and John Polando. Photo dated September 1930 by the source but the aircraft, then wearing 'The 1930 American Legion Convention' titles, was severely damaged by fire on 4 September 1930. Repairs cost of $25,000.
