Old Photo Album: Rossi and Codos Transatlantic Flight
Scene of activity at Floyd Bennett Field, Brooklyn, N.Y., on May 28, 1934, when the French flyers, Rossi and Codos, brought their transatlantic plane Joseph le Brix to a safe landing at 1:38 P.M. The flyers had been in the air 38 hours and 28 minutes from Paris and had covered 3,700 miles of the 6,100-mile attempt to San Diego, their goal, when trouble set them down at the New York field.
