The First World Flight

In 1924, eight Army Air Corps fliers in four Douglas World Cruiser airplanes lifted off from Lake Washington (Sand Point Airfield) and embarked on a 175-day journey around the world.

In 2024, Washingtonians will mark 100 years since their historic landing back in Seattle and Friends of Magnuson Park is leading the effort.

This event will be held virtually, via Zoom on August 8, 2024, at 6 pm. A link to join this event will be emailed to registered participants on the day of the event.
