Brad Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 This is an interesting piece. The crew for which it was made disappeared soon after taking off and was not discovered until 1930 when the remains were found. How many medals are there that were made prior to the event celebrated, and ultimately ended in tragedy? This may be the longest time interval of roughly 33 years? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salomon_August_Andr%C3%A9e Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
