May 20-21, 1927- Transatlantic non-stop solo flight - Charles A Lindbergh, in Ryan NYP Spirit of St Louis, from Long Island to Paris, in 33h:32m (>33h:39m).

May 16-31, 1919 - Transatlantic flight - USN LtCdr Albert C Read and pilot Lt Walter Hinton, in Curtiss NC-4, one of a flight of three, from Long Island to Plymouth, England, via Newfoundland, the Azores, and Lisbon, 4,514 miles in 53h:58m.
