Swedish pilot Kurt Björkvall tried to fly this Bellanca across the Atlantic in October 1936 but he had to ditch 100 km short off the Irish coast. He was rescued by the French trawler Imbrim. Originally a CH-300W, the aircraft had supposedly been upgraded to CH-400W standard but was still called a Pacemaker, not a Skyrocket. Photo by: Rudy Arnold / Smithsonian Institution
